Metric
The metric system uses liters
1 liter = 1 cubic decimeter (10cm x 10 cm x 10 cm)
Sometimes cubic centimeters are also used 1 cubic cm = 1/1000 of a liter = 1 milliliter
Imperial Volume
The Imperial system uses pints, quarts and gallonsVolume is also measured in cubic inches, cubic
feet and cubic yards.In Canada when we refer to Imperial we usually
mean British Imperial, but the US has a different system
1 British gallon = 4.546 litres1 US gallon = 3.785 litres
• In both Imperial systems:1 gallon = 4 quarts1 quart = 2 pints
