Measuring+Volume+Period+2

Measuring Volume Period 2 **__Volume__:** is the amount a space an object takes up.
As you can see these are two different types of graduated cylinders. The one on the left measures 100 milliliters, and the one on the right measures 50 milliliters. We filled them both up to 40 milliters to show that there is a difference in the length of the water.



The lines on a graduated cylinder are similar to the lines on a measuring cup.Volume is measured using metric units such as liters, centiliters, and milliliters. Graduated cylinders measures in milliliters as shown in the picture above.

The formula for measuring volume is length x width x height (l x w x h)
