The exact number of cups in 350 cubic centimeters (cc) depends on whether you are referring to standard volumetric measuring cups or "cup sizes" in the context of breast implants.
Standard Volumetric Measurement
To convert 350 cubic centimeters (cc) to standard U.S. customary cups, we can use the conversion factor that 100 cc equals 3.3 ounces.
Here's the step-by-step conversion:
-
Convert cc to ounces:
Since 100 cc is equivalent to 3.3 ounces, 350 cc can be calculated as:
350 cc = (350 / 100) * 3.3 ounces
350 cc = 3.5 * 3.3 ounces
350 cc = 11.55 ounces -
Convert ounces to U.S. customary cups:
A standard U.S. customary cup contains 8 fluid ounces. Therefore, to convert 11.55 ounces to cups:
11.55 ounces / 8 ounces/cup = 1.44375 cups
Therefore, 350 cc is 1.44375 standard U.S. customary cups.
| Measurement Type | Value in cc | Value in Ounces (based on 100 cc = 3.3 oz) | Value in Standard U.S. Cups (1 cup = 8 oz) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Volumetric (Exact) | 350 cc | 11.55 oz | 1.44375 cups |
"Cup Sizes" in Breast Implants
When discussing breast implants, cubic centimeters (cc) are used to denote the volume of the implant. The term "cup size" in this context refers to bra cup sizes, which are not a direct volumetric measurement but rather an indicator of breast projection and circumference.
- According to general guidelines related to breast implants, 200 cc is considered to equal one "cup size."
- An additional 150 cc (bringing the total to 350 cc) is generally considered to add another "cup size."
- This suggests that 350 cc would be approximately 2 "cup sizes" in the context of breast implant sizing.
It is important to note that this "cup size" approximation is specific to the cosmetic surgery field and does not correlate directly with standard liquid measuring cups. Individual results and "cup size" outcomes for breast implants can vary based on factors such as natural breast tissue, chest circumference, and implant shape.
