One day, I needed to know for some reason how many fluid ounces are in a mile cubed. With kilometers and liters, it's really simple, because a liter is 10cm cubed, so 1 meter cubed is a 1000 liters, so 1000 meters cubed is a 1000 billion liters. But with miles, conversion is a bit more difficult. A mile is roughly 1600 meters. A fluid ounce is roughly 0.03 liters. So if you cube the 1600, you get roughly 4.1 billion, times a 1000 liters is 4.1 trillion liters. Multiply by 33.3 because that's how many floz go into one liter, and a mile cubed is roughly 140 trillion fluid ounces. I hope you liked my conversion story.
