Measuring Solid Volume
This guide explores how to measure solid volume using the metric system, focusing on liters (L), centiliters (cL), and milliliters (mL). The base unit of volume is the liter, equating to 1000 milliliters. We can accurately measure the volume of regular objects using the formula: length × width × height. Additionally, a short instructional video is available to deepen your understanding. Discover how to apply these concepts in practical scenarios.

Measuring Solid Volume Metric System
kL Metric Units cL mL L Volume is the amount of space an object takes up. The base unit of volume in the metric system in the liter and is represented by L or l. Metric Units 1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters (mL) 1 milliliter (mL) = 1 cm3 (or cc) = 1 gram* Click the image to watch a short video about volume. * When referring to waterLiter Image: http://www.dmturner.org/Teacher/Pictures/liter.gif
