TIPS

1. The standard units for measuring volume of liquid are litres (l) and milliliters (ml).
2. The relationship between the units of volume is 1 litre (l) = 1 000 millilitres (ml)

Example:

1. Convert 8 l to ml.

   8 l	= 8 x 1 000 ml
   	= 8 000 ml



2. Convert 2 600 ml to l.

   2 600 ml	= 2 600 / 1 000
   	= 2.6 l

COMMON MISTAKES

1. Convert 4 l 60 ml to ml.
   
   Incorrect:

   4 l 60 ml	= 4 l + 60 ml
   	= 400 ml + 60 ml
   	= 460 ml

   
   Correct:

   4 l 60 ml	= 4 l + 60 ml
   	= 4000 ml + 60 ml
   	= 4060 ml
