Conversion formula

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

1 L = 0.001 m3

To convert 473 liters into cubic meters we have to multiply 473 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from liters to cubic meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 L → 0.001 m3

473 L → V_(m3)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in cubic meters:

V_(m3) = 473 L × 0.001 m3

V_(m3) = 0.473 m3

The final result is:

473 L → 0.473 m3

We conclude that 473 liters is equivalent to 0.473 cubic meters:

473 liters = 0.473 cubic meters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 cubic meter is equal to 2.1141649048626 × 473 liters.

Another way is saying that 473 liters is equal to 1 ÷ 2.1141649048626 cubic meters.

Approximate result

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

473 L ≅ 0.473 m3

An alternative is also that one cubic meter is approximately two point one one four times four hundred seventy-three liters.
