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 638 cubic centimeters into liters we have to multiply 638 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

638 cm3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 638 cm3 × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.638 L

The final result is:

638 cm3 → 0.638 L

We conclude that 638 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 0.638 liters:

638 cubic centimeters = 0.638 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 1.5673981191223 × 638 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 638 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.5673981191223 liters.

Approximate result

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

638 cm3 ≅ 0.638 L

An alternative is also that one liter is approximately one point five six seven times six hundred thirty-eight cubic centimeters.
