Conversion formula

The conversion factor from milliliters to liters is 0.001, which means that 1 milliliter is equal to 0.001 liters:

1 ml = 0.001 L

To convert 1700 milliliters into liters we have to multiply 1700 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from milliliters to liters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ml → 0.001 L

1700 ml → V_(L)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in liters:

V_(L) = 1700 ml × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 1.7 L

The final result is:

1700 ml → 1.7 L

We conclude that 1700 milliliters is equivalent to 1.7 liters:

1700 milliliters = 1.7 liters
