About Cubic Meters
A cubic meter (m³) is the SI derived unit of volume - the volume of a cube with sides of one meter - equal to 1,000 liters. It is the standard international unit for large fluid volumes, solid materials, and gas quantities. Concrete production and placement is measured in cubic meters; river discharge is reported in cubic meters per second (m³/s, or 'cumecs'); shipping container capacity is quoted in cubic meters; and natural gas is traded in standard cubic meters. An Olympic swimming pool holds 2,500 m³. One cubic meter of water has a mass of exactly 1,000 kg (one metric tonne).
About Cups
A cup = 8 fl oz = 16 tbsp ≈ 236.6 mL - the fundamental unit of American cooking. Almost every US recipe uses cups for dry and liquid ingredients. The US customary cup (236.588 mL) differs from the US legal cup (240 mL, used in nutrition labelling) and the metric cup (Australia/Canada: 250 mL). Kitchen sets come in 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, and 1 cup sizes. 2 cups = 1 US pint.
