How are meter-liter different?

Both are metric measurements. Liters are a measurement of volume. Meters are a measurement of distance (length). Liters typically describe a volume of liquid, like a two liter bottle of soda. Meters describe the distance between one point and another, like from the floor to the top of your head (how tall you are when standing), or from your house to your friend's house, or the length, width or height of a room.


Why isn't correct to describe volume as lenght times width times height what would be the correct way of describing volume?

What's the volume of a sphere? It fits, with space to spare, inside a cube with side length 2 x radius_sphere; the volume of the cube is length x width x height = (2 x radius_sphere)3, so what's the volume of the sphere which is less than this?Clearly width x height x length does not always work as it depends upon the shape; volume = width x length x height is only true for a cuboid, other shapes use different formulae for volumes.So what is volume?Volume is the amount of space an object occupies.Formula for various objects:cuboid: volume = length x width x heightpyramid: volume = 1/3 x area_of_base x heightcone: volume = 1/3 x π x radius_of_base2 x heightsphere: volume = 4/3 x π x radius_of_sphere3.
