• Convert
between
Units
of
Volume
and
Capacity
The
relationship
between
the
cubic
mm,
cubic
cm
and
cubic
m
is
similar
to
one-‐dimensional
units.
However,
since
volume
is
3-‐dimensional,
then
normal
conversions
between
mm,
cm
and
m
are
cubed.
Since
3D
objects
can
be
filled
with
liquid,
we
must
also
be
familiar
with
capacity
units.
However
the
question
remains:
what
is
the
relationship
between
capacity
and
volume?
In
other
words,
what
is
the
volume
of
a
container
that
can
hold
1L?
How
many
mL
will
a
container
with
a
volume
of
40cm3
hold?
The
answer
to
these
questions
can
be
found
by
exploring
the
following
relationships.
