  A gallon is a measure of volume of approximately four litres. Historically it has had many different definitions, but there are three definitions in current use.

•  Litre

  The litre (or liter - see spelling differences) is a unit of volume. There are two official symbols: the Latin letter L in lower and upper case (l and L). The lower case L is also often written as a cursive ℓ, though this symbol has no official approval by any international bureau. Although the litre is not an SI unit, it is accepted for use with the SI, and has appeared in several versions of the metric system. The official SI unit of volume is the cubic metre (m), equivalent to 1,000 litres.

•  Cubic centimetre

  A cubic centimetre (or cubic centimeter in US English) (symbol cm — the abbreviation cc, though widely used, is deprecated) is a commonly used unit of volume extending the derived SI-unit cubic metre, and corresponds to the volume of a cube measuring 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm. One cubic centimetre corresponds to a volume of ⁄1,000,000 of a cubic metre, or ⁄1000 of a litre, or one millilitre; thus, 1 cm ≡ 1 mL.
