Its origins can be traced back to ancient civilizations, with various cultures using different foot lengths. The standardization of the foot, and consequently the cubic foot, occurred over time as measurement systems evolved.

Current use: Cubic feet are commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom for measuring volumes of various materials, particularly in construction, shipping, and heating/cooling calculations. It is often used for quantifying the volume of spaces, such as rooms or storage containers, and for measuring the amount of gas or liquid being transported.

Current use: Decilitres are frequently employed in European countries in cooking recipes. Also, they're sometimes used in medical contexts for measuring fluids, especially blood, and in scientific experiments when volume is a critical parameter.
