yes 1/8 is smaller than 1/2.
Yes ... if you do simple math inversions this is easier to understand: 1/4 = 0.25 1/3 = 0.33 (ad infinitum) 1/2 = 0.5 Clearly, 1/3 cup is 0.08 greater than 1/4 cup & 1/3 cup is 0.17 less than 1/2 cup. So, yes, 1/3 of a cup is in between 1/2 cup and 1/4 cup.
Yes. The pound and ounce (avoirdupois) are English units of measurement.There are 16 ounces (avoirdupois) to the pound.This ounce is not directly related to the fluid ounce, a unit of volume (1/16 pint, 1/32 quart).
