To convert ounces (oz) to milliliters (ml), use the conversion factor \(1 \text { oz} = 29.5735 \text { ml} \). Multiply 3.4 oz by 29.5735 ml/oz:
\[3.4 \text { oz} \times 29.5735 \text { ml/oz} = 100.55 \text { ml} \]
Supplemental Knowledge
Unit conversion is an integral component of mathematics and science, enabling us to translate measurements between systems. Its usage comes into its own when used in fields like cooking, chemistry or international trade where multiple measuring systems exist.
- Volume Measurement:
- Ounces (oz) are commonly used in the United States for measuring volume.
- Milliliters (ml) are part of the metric system, widely used around the world.
- Conversion Factor:
- 1 fluid ounce (US) is approximately equal to 29.5735 milliliters.
Theory in Practice
Imagine this: when following a recipe involving ingredients listed in ounces but measuring tools are marked in milliliters. Being familiar with both units ensures you can follow it exactly for best results!
