How many liters are in 1 cubic meter?

1 cubic meter is exactly 1000 liters.

How do I convert cubic meters to liters?

Multiply cubic meters (m³) by 1000. Example: 2.5 m³ × 1000 = 2500 L.

Divide liters by 1000. Example: 750 L ÷ 1000 = 0.75 m³.

Conversion table

m³ → L

\( \text{liters} = \text{cubic meters} \times 1000 \)

L → m³

\( \text{cubic meters} = \text{liters} \div 1000 \)

1 liter is defined as 1 cubic decimeter (1 dm³). A cubic meter contains 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000 cubic decimeters, so 1 m³ = 1000 dm³ = 1000 L.

If you have a water tank of 2.3 m³:

\( 2.3 \times 1000 = 2300 \) L, so the tank holds 2300 liters.

Is this exact? Yes, it is an exact metric relation.
