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 509 cubic centimeters into liters we have to multiply 509 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

509 cm3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 509 cm3 × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.509 L

The final result is:

509 cm3 → 0.509 L

We conclude that 509 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 0.509 liters:

509 cubic centimeters = 0.509 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 1.9646365422397 × 509 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 509 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.9646365422397 liters.

Approximate result

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

509 cm3 ≅ 0.509 L

An alternative is also that one liter is approximately one point nine six five times five hundred nine cubic centimeters.
