assistant
How many tablespoons are in a full cup? ** First find the number of tablespoons in a full cup: 8 tablespoons/half-cup * 2 half-cups/cup = <<8*2=16>>16 tablespoons
How many teaspoons are in a cup? ** Then find the total number of teaspoons in a cup: 16 tablespoons/cup * 3 teaspoons/tablespoon = <<16*3=48>>48 teaspoons
How many grains of rice are in a teaspoon? ** Then find the number of grains of rice per teaspoon: 480 grains / 48 teaspoons = <<480/48=10>>10 grains/teaspoon
