1 L = 0.001 m³

Show the working
  1. 1 L = 0.001 m³
  2. 1 × 0.001 = 0.001 m³

How to convert liters to cubic meters

1 L = 0.001 m³, so multiply by 0.001 to go from liters to cubic meters. Going the other way, 1 m³ = 1,000 L.

m³ = L × 0.001
L = m³ × 1,000

Worked example:

1 L = 0.001 m³
5 × 0.001 = 0.005 m³
