Fluid Ounces and Milliliters Conversion

This video tutorial explains how to convert between fluid ounces and milliliters. It begins by introducing the concept of fluid ounces as a measure of volume, distinct from regular ounces. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to converting three fluid ounces into milliliters using a conversion factor of 29.57 milliliters per fluid ounce. The process involves multiplying the fluid ounces by the conversion factor to obtain the result in milliliters. The video then demonstrates the reverse conversion, turning milliliters back into fluid ounces by using the conversion factor in a division operation. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of using conversion factors correctly to ensure accurate results.
