Q.

• 432 ml = _____cm3

A.

• 432 ml = 432 cm3

• No, this is not a mistake: Your notes say that a ml=cc=cm3

• This means that 10 ml=10cc=10cm3

• It doesn’t matter what the number is, it would be the same for all 3. In this case 432ml=432cc=432cm3

Q.

• .07L = _______cc

A.

• .07 L = 70 cc

• Some of you wanted to say it was the same thing (.07), but a L is not a ml!

• ml=cc• 1st you would have to convert the L to a ml

(move the decimal 3 jumps to the right)• You now have 70ml• Since a ml=cc, 70ml= 70cc
