2. Volume I can find the volume of the following 3D shapes.  Cube  Cuboid  Cylinder

3. The amount of space that a three-dimensional object takes up is called its volume. Volume For example, we can use mm 3, cm 3, m 3 or km 3. The 3 tells us that there are three dimensions, length, width and height. Volume is measured in cubic units.

4. Capacity Liquid volume or capacity is measured in millilitres, litres, pints or gallons. Note: 1 ml of water has a volume of 1 cm 3
