الدليل

⁦For long distances we use the⁩ الكيلومتر: ⁦1 kilometre = 1000 metres⁩. ⁦Going from a bigger unit to a smaller one we multiply, and the other way we divide⁩: ⁦2 km 300 m is 2000 + 300 = 2300 m⁩.

The السعة ⁦of a container is the most liquid it can hold; a bottle⁩'⁦s capacity is 1 litre, for example⁩. The الحجم ⁦of the liquid in it is how much is in it right now, which can be less than the capacity⁩.

⁦To count, measure the capacity with a smaller container⁩: ⁦if a teapot holds 1200 ml and each glass holds 150 ml, the teapot holds 8 glasses of tea⁩.

⁦A cube with 1 cm edges holds 1 ml of water⁩. ⁦A cube with 10 cm edges is 1000 cubic centimetres, so 1000 ml or 1 litre⁩.

⁦1 ml of water has a mass of 1 g⁩. ⁦So 1 litre of water has a mass of 1000 g, which is 1 kg⁩.
