Volumes are described in units such as cubic centimeters (cm3) and cubic inches (in3). Dimensional analysis is an excellent way of determining the correct units for an answer.
• If measurements of length are added, use a one-dimensional unit of length.
• If two measurements of length are multiplied, use a two-dimensional unit of area.
• If three measurements of length are multiplied, use a three-dimensional unit of volume.

At a self-service gas station, 89-octane gasoline sells for 102.6¢ a liter. Estimate the price of 1 gal in dollars.
Since 1 liter is about 1 quart and there are 4 quarts in a gallon, the price of a gallon is about 4 times the price of a liter.
Thus, 89-octane gasoline sells for about $4.10 a gallon.
