About this calculator
Volume measures three-dimensional capacity. The metric system uses liters and cubic meters, while the US customary and imperial systems use gallons, quarts, pints, cups and fluid ounces. Note that US and imperial gallons differ: a US gallon is 3.785411784 liters while an imperial (UK) gallon is 4.54609 liters.
This converter uses the liter as its base unit. One cubic meter equals 1000 liters and one cubic centimeter equals one milliliter. It is ideal for recipes, fuel volumes, container sizing and laboratory measurements.
