What is a tablespoon (UK) in millilitres?

A UK tablespoon is commonly standardized as 15 millilitres in modern practice.

What does one megaliter represent?

One megaliter equals 1,000,000 litres or 1,000 cubic metres and is used for large water volumes.

Is this conversion suitable for precise engineering?

No, because tablespoon (UK) is small and imprecise, more exact units like litres or cubic metres are preferred for precise work.
