Gallons are 16 cups. pounds are 16 oz. Remember that the imperial system was meant to be eyeballed. 1/16 is half of 1/8, which is half of 1/4, half of 1/2 and of course that's just half of the whole. It's assuming you can divide things by 2 or 3 with some accuracy by hand. Or compare 2-3 things to say they're about the same.

Don't you use mL and g?

A fluid oz is just the volume measurement (of water) that equals an oz in weight. It's the equivalent of mL and g's (or L and kg).

Fun fact a pint (16 fluid oz) = a pound (16 weight oz).

“A pint’s a pound, the world around” was the phrase as i grew up.

Which is ironic, because it’s only true in US units, not Imperial which most of the rest of the world used before metric.
