===About Metres Cubed===
: '''Metres cubed''' are shortened to m<sup>3</sup> with a lower case m and an [[indices]] of 3.
: '''Metres cubed''' (m<sup>3</sup>) are rarely used in [[experiment]]s because they are a very large quantity. So normally [[millilitre]]s (ml) would be used instead.
: A '''meter cubed''' is a [[cube]] with sides 1m in length. Since a [[metre]] is 100[[centimetre]]s then a '''metre cubed''' is 100 x 100 x 100 [[Centimetres Cubed|centimetres cubed]] (1,000,000cm<sup>3</sup>).
