Explanation :
Cubical vessel of side 1 m
Calculating Volume of a Cube
Side length = 1 meter
Volume formula = side length³
Volume = 1 × 1 × 1 = 1 cubic meter
Converting to Milliliters:
1 cubic meter = 1000 liters
1 liter = 1000 milliliters
Final Calculation:
Total milliliters = 1000 × 1000
= 1,000,000 milliliters
Answer: (d) 1,000,000 milliliters
