Can you show me how to do this.
What is the volume of a container that is 9cm wide, 5 cm long, and 2 cm tall? How many liters will fit in this container?

How many cubic centimeters are in one cubic meter?

You should know that

1m3=1m1m1m\displaystyle 1 m^3 = 1m \cdot 1 m \cdot 1 m

Now replace 1 m by 100 cm:

1m3=100cm100cm100cm=1.000.000cm3\displaystyle 1 m^3 = 100 cm \cdot 100 cm \cdot 100 cm = 1.000.000 cm^3
