Volume Converter
Volume measures how much three-dimensional space a substance occupies. The liter and milliliter are common metric units, while cooking and fuel use US customary units (cups, gallons) or Imperial units. US and Imperial gallons are different sizes, so they are listed separately.
About volume conversion
Volume conversion is commonly needed when cooking recipes, fuel, beverages, and container capacity. US and Imperial liquid measures differ, so a US cup or gallon is not the same size as its UK counterpart.
