Liquid measures
1 gallon= 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups = 128 fluid ounces = 3.79 L
1/2 gallon= 2 quarts = 4 pints = 8 cups = 64 fluid ounces = 1.89 L
1/4 gallon= 1 qt.= 2 pts.= 4 cups= 32 fl oz.= .95 L
1/2 quart= 1 pt.= 2 cups= 16 fl oz.= .47 L
1/4 quart= 1/2pt.= 1 cup= 8 fl oz.= .24 L

Dry measures
1 cup= 8 fl oz = 16 Tbsp = 48 tsp = 237 ml
3/4 cup= 6 fl oz = 12 Tbsp = 36 tsp = 177 ml
2/3 cup= 5-1/3 fl oz = 10-2/3 Tbsp = 32 tsp = 158 ml
1/2 cup= 4 fl oz = 8 Tbsp = 24 tsp = 118 ml
1/3 cup= 2-2/3 fl oz = 5-1/3 Tbsp = 16 tsp = 79 ml
1/4 cup= 2 fl oz = 4 Tbsp = 12 tsp = 59 ml
1/8 cup= 1 fl oz = 2 Tbsp = 6 tsp = 30 ml
1 Tbsp= 3 tsp = 15 ml

Temperatures
Very low oven = 250-275ºF = 121-133°C
Low oven = 300-325ºF = 149-163°C
Moderate oven = 350-375ºF = 177-190°C
Hot oven = 400-425ºF = 204-218°C
Very hot oven = 450-475ºF = 232-246°C
Coldest area of freezer = -10ºF = -23°C

Water freezes = 32 ºF = 0° C
Water simmers = 115ºF = 46°C
Water scalds = 130ºF = 54°C
Water boils (sea level) = 212ºF = 100°C

Soft ball = 234ºF = 112°C
Firm ball = 244ºF = 117°C
Hard ball = 250ºF = 121°C

To convert Fahrenheit into Centigrade/Celsius, subtract 32, multiply by 5 divide by 9.
To convert Centigrade/Celsius into Fahrenheit, go into reverse: multiply by 9, divide by 5, add 32.
For a quick conversion from C to F for low temperatures (between about 0C and 30C), just double the number and add 30.
