Litre (l) - GCSE Maths Definition

A litre (l) is a unit of measurement used to measure volume, which tells us how much space an object or substance takes up. It is commonly used to measure liquids, like water or milk.

In the metric system, one litre is equal to 1,000 millilitres (ml). For example, a big bottle of fizzy drink might hold two litres, which is the same as 2,000 millilitres.

Understanding litres is important in GCSE Maths, especially when working with problems that involve capacity and conversions between different units of volume.
