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 3.8 milliliters into liters we have to multiply 3.8 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

3.8 ml → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 3.8 ml × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.0038 L

The final result is:

3.8 ml → 0.0038 L

We conclude that 3.8 milliliters is equivalent to 0.0038 liters:

3.8 milliliters = 0.0038 liters
