Example:% df -h

/dev/disk3s3s1 228Gi 14Gi 115Gi 11% 501138 1208959160 0% /
devfs 200Ki 200Ki 0Bi 100% 692 0 100% /dev
/dev/disk3s6 228Gi 20Ki 115Gi 1% 0 1208959160 0% /System/Volumes/VM
/dev/disk3s4 228Gi 475Mi 115Gi 1% 1941 1208959160 0% /System/Volumes/Preboot

/dev/disk3s1 228Gi 97Gi 115Gi 46% 1142503 1208959160 0% /System/Volumes/Data
map auto_home 0Bi 0Bi 0Bi 100% 0 0 100% /System/Volumes/Data/home
-h gives you results in human-readable format Gi/Mi
As you can see my disk on the Mac disk3s1 is taking up 46% space i.e. 97 GB utilized of 228 GB, so I have 131 GB of free space.
