How to convert milliliters to liters

Choose the named US, Imperial or metric unit before converting a recipe or container size. A US liquid gallon is 3.785411784 L; an Imperial gallon is 4.54609 L. Volume alone cannot give ingredient mass without density.

Formula
L = mL × 0.001

One milliliter is 0.001 liters, so a single multiplication converts any value.

Example
0.01 L = 10 × 0.001

Sources and precision

Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
