According to the label on a bottle of salad dressing, the volume of the contents is 0.473 liter (L). Using only the conversions 1 L = 1000 cm3 and 1 in. = 2.54 cm, express this volume in cubic inches.

28.9 in^3

Explanation:

Converting units litres (L) to be in^3, the ratios with the same units will cancel out:

Volume in litre = 0.473 litres

1 litre = 1000 cm^3

1 in = 2.54cm

(0.473litres/1) * (1000cm^3/1 litre) * (1 in / 2.54cm) ^3 = 28.9 in^3

Therefore the volume in cubic inches = 28.9 in^3.
