A gill (US) is a traditional US liquid volume unit equal to one quarter of a US liquid pint or four fluid ounces, used historically for measuring small beverage volumes.

Why convert gills to cubic meters?

Converting to cubic meters allows for standardization in scientific, engineering, and international contexts where metric units are preferred.

Is the gill commonly used today?

No, the gill is a non-SI unit rarely used in modern measurements but remains relevant for historical recipes and records.
