16 ounces = 1 pound, one cup is 8 ounces, so 1/2 pound.

But that's not the whole story!

That's why a pint has 16 fluid ounces. A fluid ounce is, like a cup, a unit of volume, but one fluid ounce of WATER weighs an ounce, a pint of WATER weighs 16 ounces = 1 pound.

This works ONLY for water!

A cup of water is 8 ounces, but a cup of anything else will weigh a different amount.

For example a cup of Crisco weighs 7 ounces, a cup of flour weighs about 6 ounces.
