Well Mr. self proclaimed "Expert" "math major dewd" looks like you got cheated on your math degree. Below is the E_L_E_M_E_N_T_A_R_Y math
2 Tbsp = 1 oz
24oz H2O = 3 - 8oz cups
2 Tblsp per cup = 6Tblsp
6 tbsp = 3oz
Worry not you could prolly get a gov't job with your "expertise" but definetly keep a low profile otherwise you might get investigated for (drum roll please)
