How do you convert imperial pints to imperial quarts? The converter and the working

  1. 1.Take the measurement in imperial pints.
  2. 2.Multiply by 0.5 — that is how many imperial quarts fit in one imperial pint.
  3. 3.To go back the other way, divide by 0.5, or multiply by 2.

Worked example: 25 imperial pints to imperial quarts

Formula
pt (UK) × 0.5 = qt (UK)
Arithmetic
25 × 0.5 = 12.5 qt (UK)
Answer

What is an imperial pint?

An eighth of an imperial gallon, 568.26125 ml exactly, and still the legal measure for draught beer and doorstep milk in the UK. A US pint is 473 ml, which is why a British pint glass holds noticeably more.

What is an imperial quart?

A quarter of an imperial gallon, 1.1365225 liters exactly. It is larger than a US quart by the same fifth that separates the two gallons.

How many imperial quarts are in an imperial pint?

One imperial pint is 0.5 imperial quarts, exactly. Going the other way, one imperial quart is 2 imperial pints. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
