There definitely is some major messiness with the system, but:
4 fluid drams in a Tablespoon (No 0.5Tbps unit?)
2 Tablespoons in a fluid ounce
4 fluid ounces in a gill (No 0.5 gill unit?)
2 gills in a cup
2 cups in a pint
2 pints in a quart
2 quarts in a half gallon
2 half gallons in a gallon
63 gallons in a hogshead
Okay, yeah, there's a lot of messy units outside of this series, and some holes. We have the apothecaries' system, the avoirdupois system, the customary system. A hundredweight is 112 LBs because a Stone is 14 rather than 10. A mile is some number of feet I always have to look up.
