A cubic mile (mi³) ≈ 4.168 km³ = 4.168 × 10¹² L. Lake Superior: ~2,900 mi³ (world's largest freshwater lake by surface area). Total volume of all glaciers and ice caps (excl. Antarctica and Greenland): ~170,000 mi³. Volcanic magma chamber sizes and major US aquifer volumes are sometimes quoted in cubic miles in American geoscience literature. 1 mi³ ≈ 4.168 km³.
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.
