fluid measurement
Gauging liquid amounts
Fluid measurement is the quantification of liquids by volume.
In the U.S., common units include teaspoons, tablespoons, fluid ounces, cups, pints, quarts, and gallons.
The metric system uses milliliters and liters.
The recipe calls for fluid measurements in cups, not weight.
Fluid measurement matters in cooking, medicine, and chemistry, where precision affects outcomes.
