How the Unit Converter works
One US fluid ounce is 29.57352956 milliliters. Both units are defined against the same SI base unit, so the factor is derived from two exact definitions rather than measured. It is exact in principle and does not land on a round number.
Worked through: 8 fl oz x 29.5735296 = 236.588 ml.
Going the other way, one milliliter is 0.0338140227 US fluid ounces.
To convert without a calculator, multiply by 29.57. Rounding that to 30 is within 1.4% for most purposes.
A US fluid ounce is 29.57 ml and an imperial one is 28.41. The imperial is SMALLER, which is the opposite of the gallon and pint relationship and catches people who assume imperial is always bigger.
Precision is worth matching to the input. A measurement given as 1 fl oz carries one or two significant figures, and reporting its conversion to six implies a precision the original never had.
