What is a pint?
A US liquid pint is half a quart, or two cups.
Definition: Exactly one eighth of a US liquid gallon, so exactly 0.473176473 liter.
Where it is used: Beer, cream, berries and ice cream in the US.
Worth knowing: The imperial pint is 568.26 mL — noticeably larger than the US pint's 473 mL, which is why a UK pint of beer is a bigger drink.
What is a cubic centimeter?
A cubic centimeter is the volume of a one-centimeter cube, identical to a milliliter.
Definition: Exactly 1×10⁻⁶ cubic meter, which is exactly 1 mL.
Where it is used: Engine displacement on motorcycles and small engines, and medical volumes where it is written 'cc'.
Pints vs Cubic Centimeters
The pint is a US customary unit while the cubic centimeter is a metric unit. That is why the factor between them is not a round number: the two systems were defined independently and only later tied together by exact agreement.
