Conversion formula

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

1 cm3 = 0.001 L

To convert 21.5 cubic centimeters into liters we have to multiply 21.5 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from cubic centimeters to liters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 cm3 → 0.001 L

21.5 cm3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 21.5 cm3 × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.0215 L

The final result is:

21.5 cm3 → 0.0215 L

We conclude that 21.5 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 0.0215 liters:

21.5 cubic centimeters = 0.0215 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 46.511627906977 × 21.5 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 21.5 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 46.511627906977 liters.

Approximate result

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

21.5 cm3 ≅ 0.022 L

An alternative is also that one liter is approximately forty-six point five one two times twenty-one point five cubic centimeters.
