Length(m) meter Volume(L) Liter Mass(g) gram Measuring with Metric Units

The volume of 20 drops of liquid from a medicine dropper is approximately 1 mL. A sugar cube has a volume of 1 cm 3. 1 mL = 1 cm 3 (1 cc)

1 gallon of milk has about twice the volume of a 2-L bottle of soda. 1 gal = 3.8 L

A 250 lb. person would weigh 113 kg 1 kg = 2.2 lb
