Regarding alcohol bottles, a fifth is 750 ml, 25.4 Oz., approx. 1/5 of a gallon. The measurement was originally 1/5 of a gallon (approx. 757 ml), but when the federal regulations changed to metric, 750 ml became the standard fill. Because this was close to 1/5 of a gallon, the bottle was still referred to as a fifth.

A fifth of a fifth would be 150 ml, 5.1 Oz.
