What is a cubic metre?

Exactly a thousand litres, by the definition of the litre. The SI unit of volume, and how the rest of the world orders concrete.

What is an imperial quart?

A quarter of an imperial gallon, 1.1365225 liters exactly. It is larger than a US quart by the same fifth that separates the two gallons.

How many imperial quarts are in a cubic metre?

One cubic metre is 879.87699 imperial quarts. Going the other way, one imperial quart is 0.0011365225 cubic metres. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
