A deciliter (dL) is a common metric unit of volume equal to one-tenth of a liter.
It is often used in cooking and medical measurements.
While less common in North America, the deciliter is a standard unit of measurement in many European kitchens, especially in Scandinavia.
It's frequently used in recipes to measure both dry and liquid ingredients, such as flour, sugar, water, and milk.
You'll often find it printed on measuring cups and food packaging throughout the region.
The deciliter plays a crucial role in the medical field.
Blood test results often use this unit to express the concentration of substances in the blood.
For example, blood sugar levels are commonly measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), and cholesterol levels are also frequently reported this way.
The deciliter fits neatly within the decimal-based metric system.
The prefix "deci-" means one-tenth, so a deciliter is exactly one-tenth of a liter.

A cubic foot (ft3) is a standard unit of volume used in the United States imperial system.
It represents the space inside a cube that is one foot long on every side. The plural form is cubic feet.
It can be hard to picture a measurement, but a cubic foot is a widespread size.
Imagine a standard cardboard box measuring 1 foot wide, 1 foot long, and 1 foot high. This space can hold:
This real-world comparison helps you estimate the volume of everyday spaces, from the capacity of a fish tank to the amount of soil needed for a garden bed.
The cubic foot is used to measure volume in many household and commercial applications.
You will often see it used to describe:
In a world that often uses the metric system, it's helpful to know how to convert cubic feet.
This is crucial for international trade, scientific work, or just understanding product specs from other countries.
For a quick estimate, remember that a cubic foot can hold more than 28 one-liter water bottles.
