Litres & Millilitres

Litres & Capacity
When you fill a container with liquid to find out how much it holds, you measure its capacity
The juice carton on the right has a capacity of one litre
You write:1 L
The carton holds one litre of juice
One litre fills about 4 glasses
3
Milk is sold in big containers
The carton on the left holds 4 litres
The carton on the right holds 2 litres
4
The big bottles of pop hold 2 litres
2 litres = 2L
5
The smaller bottles of pop hold 1 litre
1 litre = 1L
6
The big tubs of ice cream hold 4 litres
4 litres = 4L
7
The medium tubs of ice cream hold 2 litres
2 litres = 2L
8
The small tubs of ice cream hold 1 litre
1 litre = 1L
9
Millilitres
The millilitre (mL) is a small unit of capacity
This eyedropper has a capacity of 1 mL
It holds about 10 drops

1L = 1000 mL
This measuring jug has a capacity of 500 mL
It takes 2 of those measuring jugs to fill a 1L bottle:
500 mL + 500 mL = 1000 mL
1000 mL = 1L

Weird Measurements
Some containers have strange capacities
Ex: a can of pop has 355 mL
Why? Because 355 mL = 12 oz, which is the American measurement

Weird Measurements
This bottle of pop is 591 mL
Why? Because 591 mL = 20 oz, which is the American measurement
