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 518 liters into cubic meters we have to multiply 518 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

518 L → V_(m3)

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

V_(m3) = 518 L × 0.001 m3

V_(m3) = 0.518 m3

The final result is:

518 L → 0.518 m3

We conclude that 518 liters is equivalent to 0.518 cubic meters:

518 liters = 0.518 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 1.9305019305019 × 518 liters.

Another way is saying that 518 liters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.9305019305019 cubic meters.

Approximate result

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

518 L ≅ 0.518 m3

An alternative is also that one cubic meter is approximately one point nine three one times five hundred eighteen liters.
