How many milliliters are in 1 pint?

• A. 240 mL
• B. 480 mL
• C. 960 mL
• D. 1200 mL

Answer: (B)

A pint is two cups, and a cup is 240 mL. Multiply: 2 × 240 mL = 480 mL. So 1 pint equals 480 milliliters. In practice, the exact US value is about 473 mL, but 480 mL is the standard approximation used in many medical calculations. The other options would correspond to 1 cup (240 mL), 4 cups (960 mL), or 5 cups (1200 mL), which aren’t correct for a pint.
