Conversion Formula
The formula for converting ounces to milliliters is simple: multiply the number of ounces by 30 because 1 oz equals approximately 30 ml. For example, for 6 oz: 6 * 30 = 180 ml. This works because the conversion ratio is based on fluid volume measurements where 1 oz equals 30 ml.
Conversion Example
- Convert 4 oz to ml:
- – Multiply 4 by 30: 4 * 30 = 120.
- – The result is 120 ml.
- Convert 10 oz to ml:
- – Multiply 10 by 30: 10 * 30 = 300.
- – The result is 300 ml.
- Convert 2.5 oz to ml:
- – Multiply 2.5 by 30: 2.5 * 30 = 75.
- – The result is 75 ml.

Conversion Definitions
“oz” stands for ounce, a unit of weight or volume used in the imperial system, primarily for measuring liquids or small quantities of ingredients. It is standardized as approximately 28.35 grams for weight, but in fluid measurements, it’s about 30 ml per fluid ounce.
“ml” means milliliter, a metric unit of volume measurement equal to one-thousandth of a liter. It is used globally for liquids, with common applications in cooking, medicine, and scientific measurements, providing precise volume quantification.
Conversion FAQs
Why does 6 oz equal 180 ml?
This is because 1 oz is roughly 30 ml, and multiplying 6 by 30 gives 180 ml. This approximation is based on the fluid ounce measurement used in the imperial system, making conversions straightforward for small volume measurements.
Can I use this conversion for all types of liquids?
While the 1 oz to 30 ml conversion applies to fluid ounces, it assumes the liquids have similar densities. For most common liquids like water or milk, it works well, but for substances with different densities, the volume might vary slightly in weight.
What if I need to convert oz to ml in recipes?
Use the standard ratio of 1 oz equals 30 ml for quick conversions. For more precise results, especially for scientific purposes, consider using specific density data of the ingredient involved to get accurate volume in ml.
How accurate is the 30 ml per oz conversion?
The 30 ml per oz is an approximation suitable for most cooking and general use. For highly precise applications, like pharmaceuticals, more exact conversion based on specific density or measurement standards should be used.
Is there a difference between US and UK fluid ounces for this conversion?
Yes, the US fluid ounce is approximately 29.5735 ml, slightly less than the UK (imperial) fluid ounce of 28.4131 ml. This calculation assumes the imperial ounce, which is common outside the US, so adjust if you require exact US measurements.
