Fig. 18.—It takes i6J cubic centimetre? to make i cubic inch. square inch, that is of a surface i inch long and i inch broad, is therefore 2*54 x 2*54 or 6'45 square centimetres. The volume of a cubic inch, if the measurements are made in centimetres, is 2"54X2'54X 2-54 cubic centimetres, that is i6-38 cubic centi- metres. It would thus take i6"38 cubic centimetres, or roughly 16^ cubic centimetres, to make one cubic inch. Sixty-one cubic inches are about equal to the volume of one decimetre. To BE Remembered. Volume is cubical content. Length, breadth, and thickness have to be measured in determining volume. Cubic Measure is derived from Long Measure. A Litre is a volume or capacity of I cubic decimetre, that is, 1000 cubic centimetres ; i litre = if pints. As 2'54 centimetres = I inch, the number of culiic centimetres in I cubic inch is 2-54 x 2-54 x 2*54= 16*38.
