There are 2 pints in 1 quart. This applies to both liquid and dry measurements in the U.S. customary system
. To elaborate:
- 1 quart = 2 pints
- 1 pint = 16 fluid ounces (U.S. liquid pint)
- 1 quart = 32 fluid ounces (U.S. liquid quart)
In the British imperial system, the ratio is the same (2 pints in a quart), but the actual volume of a pint and quart is larger than in the U.S. system. For example, 1 UK pint = 20 fluid ounces, and 1 UK quart = 40 fluid ounces, but still 2 pints make 1 quart
. In summary, regardless of the system, 1 quart equals 2 pints, though the size of the pint and quart varies between U.S. and UK measurements
