Find out how many tablespoons are in a pint. Convert pints to tablespoons instantly, see a chart from 0.25 to 32 pints and get the exact formula. — On the scale, 1 pint lines up with 32 tablespoons; read any other amount straight across.

Multiply the pints by 32. The factor is two steps stacked together: a pint holds 2 cups, and each cup holds 16 tablespoons.

A quarter pint is 8 tablespoons, the same as half a cup. Three quarters of a pint is 24 tablespoons, and a pint and a half is 48 tablespoons.

Counting out dozens of spoonfuls invites mistakes, so measure the bulk with cups and keep the tablespoon for what is left. 20 tablespoons, for example, are 0.625 pint, which is easier to measure as 1 cup plus 4 tablespoons.
