The formula

Multiply by 8: 1/4 × 8 = 2. To reverse it, divide by 8 instead.

1/4 cups × 8 = 2 fl oz

This uses the US cup of 236.588 mL, the standard for recipes written in cups. A metric cup (Australia and New Zealand) is 250 mL and an imperial cup is 284.13 mL, so a recipe from either of those places will need a different figure.

One check before you measure: this converts FLUID oz, which are volume. If your recipe lists a dry ingredient like flour or sugar in oz, that is weight, and the answer here does not apply, weigh it on a scale instead.
