Gill (Us)
A gill (US) is a unit of volume measurement equal to one-quarter of a US pint, or 4 US fluid ounces.

Current Use
Today, the US gill is rarely used in everyday measurement but may still be encountered in historical contexts, traditional recipes, or specific industries like brewing and bartending in the United States.
Cubic Meter
A cubic meter (m^3) is the SI unit of volume, representing the volume of a cube with edges one meter long.
History/Origin
The cubic meter was established as part of the International System of Units (SI) in 1960, based on the meter defined by the wavelength of light in vacuum.
Current Use
The cubic meter is widely used in science, engineering, and industry to measure large volumes of liquids, gases, and solids, especially in contexts like construction, manufacturing, and environmental science.
