Converting from litres to millilitres you move the decimal 3 places to the right as the number is getting 1000 times bigger (multiply by 1000)

What is 1.5 liters in cubic centimeters?

There are 1000 centimeters cubed in one liter. Because of this, an easy way to convert any amount of centimeters cubed to liters is simply to divide that number by 1000 (or moving the decimal place over three places to the left). 17.3 divided by 1000 is 0.0173, thus 17.3 centimeters cubed equals 0.0173 liters.


How many milliters are in 2 liters?

This is an extremely confused question. Presumably, you are asking: how many millilitres (ml) are equivalent to two litres (l). Once phrased in that way it is very easy to answer. One litre (l) = 10 decilitres (dl) = 100 centilitres (cl) = 1000 millilitres (ml)


What is 35 PPM in percentages?

35 ppm means 35 parts per million, whereas percentage means parts per 100. The simplest way to get the answer is to say 35 parts per million, that's 0.035 parts per thousand (move decimal point three places to left), so 0.0035 parts per hundred (move decimal point another place to left)

Is a coffee mug 300 milliliters or 3 liters?

We can find the answer mathematically as follows:The average coffee mug is 3.5 inches in diameter and 4-5 inches tall, this gives it a maximum capacity to hold 48 cubic inches of liquid (5 x (PI x 3.52)). Next let's see which of these two quantities will fit in this mug. First, let's try 3 liters. Since, 1 liter equals 61 cubic inches, three liters will takes up 183 cubic inches - that's enough to fill almost four of our coffee mugs. That leaves us with our correct answer of 300 milliliters which equals 18.3 cubic inches, which is well within the maximum capacity of an average coffee mug. So, 300 milliliters is a possible capacity for a coffee mug.We could also solve this problem analytically. Since, we know that most soda comes in a two-liter bottle, we can compare the liquid in one and a half of those bottles with the size of a coffee mug. It is obvious from holding the two side-by-side that an average coffee mug could never hold three liters. This way we can deductively single out the correct answer: 300 milliliters.

How many liters are in a mL?

The liter is the larger unit. There are 1000 milliliters (ml) in a liter. 1 ml = 0.001 liters Remember K H D | d c m (kilo, hecto, deka, (liter, meter, gram), deci, centi, milli). Liters are three places to the left of milliliters. So you have to move the decimal place three times to the left. You will get 1 mL = .001 L. And a funny way to remember it is: King Henry Drinks One Dark Chocolate Milk.


How do you convert 112 meters to milliliters?

You don't convert any meters to milliliters. Meters to millimeters, liters to milliliters. Either way, multiply by 1000. 112 m = 112000 mm


Why do you move the decimal to divide a decimal by a decimal?

To move the decimal you must move the decimal in the divisor all the way to the right to make it a whole number. Then in the dividend, you move that decimal to the right the same amount of spaces you did in the divisor.
