How to find the volume of a golf ball or anything curved
First, get the item. 
Next, get a measuring cup that uses millilitres as the measuring type. 
 
Fill the cup with water to, lets say, 500 millilitres (If your cup does not have 500 millilitres, try going a bit lower). Record on a piece of paper what it is.

Then just put the golf ball inside, and record the new amount of millilitres in the cup.

Subtract the original number of millilitres that you had from the new number (example: 725 (new) - 500 (original) = 225)

Now since 1 millilitre is equal to 1 centimetre cubed, just convert 225 millilitres into 225 centimetres cubed, which is the volume of the golf ball! Oh, and please notice that your answer could range from 150 centimetres cubed to 500 centimetres cubed.

Well that's all bye!

Fraction Time!

1  = 2   3   4   5
2     4   6   8  10, and so on. in order to find out a fraction equivalent to 1 half, just add 1 to the numerator (top number) and add 2 to the denominator. 1   +   1   =   2   +   1   =   3 
                                                                                              2   +   2   =   4   +   2   =   6, and so on.

For the first post there will a review on Measurement.

1 gram = 1,000 milligrams
1 kilogram = 1,000 grams
1 tonne = 1,000 kilograms
1 metre = 100 centimetres
1 metre squared = 10,000 centimetres squared
1 metre cubed = 1,000,000 centimetres cubed
1 metre cubed = 1,000 litres
1 centimetre = 1 millilitre
1 litre = 1,000 millilitres
1 litre = 1,000 centimetres
1 centimetre squared = 100 millimetres squared
1 centimetre cubed =  1,000 millimetres cubed
