Conversion formula

The conversion factor from liters to cubic meters is 0.001, which means that 1 liter is equal to 0.001 cubic meters:

1 L = 0.001 m3

To convert 1042.1 liters into cubic meters we have to multiply 1042.1 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from liters to cubic meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 L → 0.001 m3

1042.1 L → V_(m3)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in cubic meters:

V_(m3) = 1042.1 L × 0.001 m3

V_(m3) = 1.0421 m3

The final result is:

1042.1 L → 1.0421 m3

We conclude that 1042.1 liters is equivalent to 1.0421 cubic meters:

1042.1 liters = 1.0421 cubic meters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 cubic meter is equal to 0.95960080606468 × 1042.1 liters.

Another way is saying that 1042.1 liters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.95960080606468 cubic meters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand forty-two point one liters is approximately one point zero four two cubic meters:

1042.1 L ≅ 1.042 m3

An alternative is also that one cubic meter is approximately zero point nine six times one thousand forty-two point one liters.
