Cubic Meter (m³)
The cubic meter (m³) is the official SI unit for volume, representing the space within a cube whose sides are each one meter in length. Established as part of the metric system in the late 1700s, it acts as a foundation for quantifying large volumes. A single cubic meter equals 1,000 liters and is routinely used across engineering, construction, shipping, and the environmental sector for consistent volume calculations. Its use promotes accuracy and standardization in global commerce, scientific research, and industrial processes.
Milliliter (mL)
The milliliter, written as mL, is a metric unit for volume. It is one-thousandth of a liter or one cubic centimeter. It was established as part of the metric system and is used worldwide in medicine, cooking, and science. Because it measures small amounts, it is ideal for both everyday and laboratory use. It is the same size as a cubic centimeter, so people in different fields can easily understand it. This makes the milliliter one of the most useful and common units of measurement in the liter.
