Fractions use a numerator and denominator (e.g., (3/4)). Decimals use a decimal point with place values based on powers of 10 (e.g., 0.75.)
So to answer which cookbooks use fractions; it’s American ones.
Take 1/4th cup this 2 cups that 2&7/8ths of a fl oz this and 1/2 quart of water.
So yeah. American cookbooks use factions.
“the conversion isn’t useful”
There no conversion going on. You can say 200g of flour or 0.2kg of flour. Both equally understandable to anyone who grew up with the metric system. Hell my grandpa even uses hecto- and deca- in everyday conversations.
“Roughly” - yep, that’s the best way to measure everything. Especially in science and calculations.
Hey whats a space shuttle or two between friends
I conceded, in the post you responded to, that metric is better for science. It’s the last sentence in my post.
Do you struggle with reading comprehension?
Uhm… No, you did not.
Are you okay?
How many moles of flour are you putting into your bread dough?
Mole is one specific measurement and chemistry is only one scientific field.
I measure flour in grams or kilos, which are metric. If someone says you need 0.24 kilos of flour, I immediately know it’s 240 grams.
How many feet of flour do you put in your bread? 🤣
Feet aren’t a measure of volume or weight.
But feel free to stick your feet in flour and let me know how it goes.
Also, what cookbook specifies fractions of kilograms of flour? Unless you’re running a bakery, the conversion isn’t useful.

LOL, can’t even take a joke with a laughing smiley at the end to indicate that’s a joke 🤣
“Unless it’s useful, it’s not useful”. The best fucking argument I have heard in a while LMAO 🤣
Didn’t know you were a baker. 🙄
