Hi Aryn,
A cubic centimeter (cc) is a little smaller that a sugar cube. There are 1,000 cc's in a litre so a cubic centimeter is a milliliter since milli- is the metric prefix to indicate one one-thousandth. Thus
1,000 cc = 1,000 ml = 1 l
In Canada where I am we use both the metric system and the American system of weights and measures. I went and got my measuring cup I use for baking. It has "cup/oz/pint" on one side and "litre/ml" on the other. 150ml on one side corresponds to almost 5oz on the other. Lets do it more carefully.
My dictionary says
1 gal(US) = 3.785 l
Thus
130 cc = 130 ml = 0.13 l = 0.13/3.785 = 0.0343 gal
There are 4 quarts in a gallon so
0.0343 gal = 4
0.0343 = 0.1374 quarts
There are 32 ounces in a quart so
0.1374 quarts = 32
Hence 130 cc is about 4.4 oz.
