The SI System of Measurement The International System of Units (abbreviated SI) is the modern form of the metric system and is the world's most widely used system of measurement, used in both everyday commerce and science.
Units of Measurement length = meters (m) mass = kilograms (kg) liquid volume = liters (L) solid volume = cubic centimeters (cm3) temperature = Kelvin (K) time = seconds (s)

Measuring Solid Volume V = L x W x H
Measuring Solid Volume V = L x W x H V = 7cm x 4cm x 3cm
Measuring Solid Volume V = L x W x H V = 7cm x 4cm x 3cm V = 84 cm3
