Where this conversion shows up
Following a metric recipe with US measuring spoons, or scaling a recipe where the original quantity was given in millilitres.
Worked example
30 mL of olive oil is 2.03 tablespoons — near enough to two. A 250 mL cup of stock is close to 17 tablespoons, which is when you stop measuring by spoon and reach for a jug.
Rounding and precision
Below about 45 mL, spoons are practical; above that, use a measuring cup or jug. Round to the nearest half tablespoon — precision beyond that is lost in how you fill the spoon.
