Fluid ounce is a unit of volume, so it must be measured in a container of known volume e.g. a measuring cup. Dry ounce is a measure of weight, so it must be measured using a balance or scale. However volumes of certain materials have known weights, for example, 1 gallon(a measure of volume) of water weighs 8.35 pounds(a measure of weight). So the weight of a known material can be determined if you know the volume of that material, and vice versa.
