Interactive quiz: identify metric liquid volumes (Grade 3)

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 🧮 Metric units for liquid volume include milliliters (mL) and liters (L).
• 📏 1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters (mL)
• 🥄 Think of it like this: A small spoon holds about 5 mL, and a large water bottle holds about 1 L.
• 💧 To convert liters to milliliters, multiply the number of liters by 1000. For example, 2 L = 2 * 1000 = 2000 mL.
• ⚗️ To convert milliliters to liters, divide the number of milliliters by 1000. For example, 5000 mL = 5000 / 1000 = 5 L.
• 💡When comparing volumes, make sure they are in the same units!
