Menstrual cups are sold indervidually - as menstrual cups last for up to 10 years there's only a need for one cup. You may mean softcups, these are a similar idea to menstrual cups but either disposable after one use or reusable for up to one cycle - disposable softcups come in boxes of 2, 8, 16, or 24, reusable softcups come in boxes of 2.

When you are shopping and find a deal on 12 packs of cola advertised at 4 packs for $10. If you don't want to buy all four packs, you find the price of a single pack ($10/4packs = $2.50 per pack) or if you're throwing a party and need 16 packs you find the total cost ($10*4=$40 per 16 packs = 4 groups of 4 packs). You are using rational numbers. Taking it a step further... If all you have is $20, how many 12 packs can you buy? Is how we use algebra in everyday life. What number times $10 gets us $20? 2 and each of those groups are 4- 12 packs so i could get 8- 12 packs total! (our variable is not a letter...its a 12 pack of cola!)
Decimal is a form of writing numbers and has nothing whatsoever to do with the units of measurement. So, the decimal notations would be: 1 cup for one cup, 1.5 cups for one and a half cups 5.75 cups for five and three quarter cups and so on.
The first day of a womans menstrual cycle is also the first day of menstruation.

Women would use tampons or menstrual pads. There are also options like menstrual release too.
You can get a menstrual cup such as a Mooncup which allows you to measure flow exactly. Menstrual cups are an internal menstrual product but safer than tampons so can be worn throughout your period without needing to alternate with pads, without risk of TSS or leaking. Most menstrual cups have measuring points on the side of the cup to allow you to measure flow.
A 1932 menstrual cup looks like most of the menstrual cups we have today. If you search online for history of the menstrual cup you'll see the menstrual cup invented back then looked like a Keeper.
I'm not sure what you're refering to when you say 'ThermoK' - but this material or substance isn't use in menstrual cups. Menstrual cups are made from either medical grade silicone, natural gum rubber, or TPE.
1 pint = 2 cups
A menstrual cup collects menstrual fluid, instead of absorbing it like a tampon, and is cleaned and reused, with the cup able to last as long as ten years. Menstrual cups have been shown to leak less on average, and they are very comfortable to wear.
This is really based on your personal preference. In my experience, a majority of women seem to use tampons as there is less mess. However, if you are young, you may find that pads are the best way to go until you get more used to the way your body is changing.
No, not all girls have to wear tampons and in fact there's little reason to use tampons when there are other options like pads or menstrual cups available. Girls often use tampons because they prefer them to pads and may not know that options like cups exist and can be much better than tampons. Some people cannot use menstrual cups so will use tampons when they need internal menstrual products.
It is in both numbers and letters. You have to buy the card packs.
6 cups, 2 per pack.
No, you have a few different sanitary products that you can use such as sanitary pads of varying types, tampons of varying types, sponges, softcups, and menstrual cups. When swimming menstrual cups are a better option than tampons as they can be worn safely for 12 hours with any flow, and don't leak like tampons.
