Measuring cups or spoons.
Or, so long as you use the same device across a recipe, the proportions will work.
Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups?

This actually clarifies a lot, I didn’t realize there was a misconception that Americans are just using random cups and spoons.

Isnt weight easier then? One scale thats it? But then again to each his own.

If you’re baking something that needs exact amounts of certain ingredients, then yeah, a scale is easier. A scale is more accurate, but its slower than using a measured scoop for recipes that don’t require more precision than the scoop provides.
You don’t actually need the full set. If all you have is 1 teaspoon and 1 cup, it will usually be OK to just eyeball the fractions.
