Here are the conversions: 1. 36 TBSP = 2 1/4 CUPS (36 TBSP / 16 TBSP per cup = 2 cups, with 16 - 12 = 4 TBSP remaining. 4 TBSP is 1/4 cup) 2. 13 KILOS = 13,000 GRAMS (1 KILO = 1000 GRAMS, so 13 KILOS x 1000 GRAMS per KILO = 13,000 GRAMS) 3. 12 TSP = 4 TBSP (1 TBSP = 3 TSP, so 12 TSP / 3 TSP per TBSP = 4 TBSP) 4. 20 PINT = 40 CUPS
