The math answer:

1/2 = 3/6
1/3 = 2/6

So (3/6) - (2/6) = 1/6 cups

As 1 cup is 237 ml, 1/6 is about 40 ml.

40 ml is two tablespoons (15ml each) plus 2 teaspoons (5 ml each).

To fill 1/3 to make 1/2 cup add 2 tblsp + 2 tsp.

Answer 2

If all you have is a 1/3 cup then you can get 1/2 cup by adding 1/3 + a half of 1/3. So you measure 1/3 and put it into another container, then fill the 1/3 cup half-way and then add that to the container.

Answer 3

Use the 1/4 cup and leave about 1/8 inch off the top unfilled.

Answer 4

In purely US volumetric cooking measurement units, 1/3 cup plus two tablespoons and two teaspoons is exactly 1/2 cup.

1 cup is 16 Tablespoons
1 Tablespoons is 3 teaspoons
which means
1 cup is 48 teaspoons

So:

1/2 cup is 24 teaspoons
and
1/3 cup is 16 teaspoons

The difference is 8 teaspoons
1/3 of a cup plus 8 teaspoons is 1/2 cup

In more compact measurements, 1/3 cup plus two tablespoons and two teaspoons is 1/2 cup.
