Determine the volume of the given measurements:

Explanation:

In order to determine the smallest volume in the measurement, we simply need first to understand the fundamental measurements for each unit and its conversion. 

1L = 1000 ml

This means that  Liters, is greater that milliliters.

1 cm^3 = 1 mL

Since we are given a cm, instead of cm^3, most likely we can exclude it since the measure of cm is only applicable in measuring the distance or length of an object, whereas L, and mL, is used to measure the capacity or volume of an object. We can treat cm as cm^3 in order for it to be applicable based on the given choices.

It can be seen that the greatest value is Liters, which is A, followed by D, 1050 ml, and when converted is equalt to 1.05L. Next we have 980 cm^3, and lastly the smallest volume is 0.4mL, since it is far way less than the other volumes.

Final answer:

= 0.4 mL
