A millilitre (ml) is a unit of measurement used to measure small amounts of liquid. It is part of the metric system, which is a system of measuring used in most countries around the world. One millilitre is equal to one thousandth of a litre, so there are 1,000 millilitres in a litre.
In everyday life, millilitres are often used to measure things like medicine, drinks, or cooking ingredients, making it easier to see exactly how much liquid you're dealing with.
Understanding millilitres is important in GCSE Maths as it helps with solving problems involving capacity and volume.
