true
false

Explanation:

Identify the unit system

The statement claims that "Fluid ounces are a metric unit for volume." We need to evaluate if fluid ounces belong to the metric system.

Analyze the metric system

The metric system is an international decimalized system of measurement. Common metric units for volume include liters (\(\text{L}\)) and milliliters (\(\text{mL}\)).

Analyze fluid ounces

Fluid ounces are a unit of volume used primarily in the United States customary and British imperial systems of measurement, not the metric system. Therefore, the statement is false.

Answer:

• true
• false (Correct answer)
