HOW TO DIVIDE MEASUREMENTS AT A GLANCE

I used this table to reduce the measurements in the frosting on the Coconut Sheet Cake and decided I wanted to have access to this for the future.  It's a handy tool for sure!

Original Amount	Half the Amount	One-Third the Amount
1 cup	1/2 cup	1/3 cup
3/4 cup	6 tbsp	1/4 cup
2/3 cup	1/3 cup	3 tbsp+ 1-1/2 tsp
1/2 cup	1/4 cup	2 tbsp + 2 tsp
1/3 cup	2 tbsp + 2 tsp	1 tbsp + 1-1/4 tsp
1/4 cup	2 tbsp	1 tbsp + 1 tsp
1 tbsp	1-1/2 tsp	1 tsp
1 tsp	1/2 tsp	1/4 tsp
1/2 tsp	1/4 tsp	1/8 tsp
1/4 tsp	1/8 tsp	Dash
