Liter for capacity? I think it should be meter for length. Can you explain it please?

Sandy said:   10 years ago
Yes Meter for Length is correct.

Mtr for length is right one.

No, generally it is fit good length.

No quantity in building construction is measured in weight terms, except for reinforcement, but that is measured in tons.

So, the correct answer is D.

Metre for length.

Kilogram for weight.

Litre for capacity.

I think all this are right for any measurement of building work. Like fencing, Steel-work, water tank etc.

The metric system is an alternative system of measurement used in most countries, as well as in the United States. The metric system is based on joining one of a series of prefixes, including kilo-, hecto-, deka-, deci-, centi-, and milli-, with a base unit of measurement, such as meter, liter, or gram.
