Answer :
To metricise measurements means to convert them from the imperial system to the metric system. Let's convert each of the provided measurements:
1/2 cup of flour: In the metric system, this is approximately 120 milliliters (ml) or 60 grams (g) of flour, assuming the density of flour is about 0.5 g/ml.
2 teaspoons of baking powder: A teaspoon is approximately 5 milliliters. Therefore, 2 teaspoons would be about 10 milliliters (ml) or approximately 5 grams (g), assuming the density of baking powder is close to water.
2 pounds of butter: One pound is equivalent to approximately 453.6 grams. Therefore, 2 pounds of butter would be approximately 907 grams.
1 ounce of salt: An ounce is approximately 28.35 grams. Therefore, 1 ounce of salt is about 28.35 grams.
3 tablespoons of sugar: A tablespoon is approximately 15 milliliters. Therefore, 3 tablespoons would be about 45 milliliters (ml) or approximately 38 grams (g) of sugar, using a sugar density of about 0.85 g/ml.
1/2 pint of milk: A pint is approximately 473 milliliters. Therefore, 1/2 pint of milk is about 236.5 milliliters (ml).
These conversions are approximate since the actual weight can vary with factors like packing and granule size.
