Conversion formula

The conversion factor from cubic meters to liters is 1000, which means that 1 cubic meter is equal to 1000 liters:

1 m3 = 1000 L

To convert 389 cubic meters into liters we have to multiply 389 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from cubic meters to liters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m3 → 1000 L

389 m3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 389 m3 × 1000 L

V_(L) = 389000 L

The final result is:

389 m3 → 389000 L

We conclude that 389 cubic meters is equivalent to 389000 liters:

389 cubic meters = 389000 liters

Alternative conversion
