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 388 cubic centimeters into liters we have to multiply 388 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

388 cm3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 388 cm3 × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.388 L

The final result is:

388 cm3 → 0.388 L

We conclude that 388 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 0.388 liters:

388 cubic centimeters = 0.388 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 2.5773195876289 × 388 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 388 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 2.5773195876289 liters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred eighty-eight cubic centimeters is approximately zero point three eight eight liters:

388 cm3 ≅ 0.388 L

An alternative is also that one liter is approximately two point five seven seven times three hundred eighty-eight cubic centimeters.
