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 642 cubic centimeters into liters we have to multiply 642 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

642 cm3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 642 cm3 × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.642 L

The final result is:

642 cm3 → 0.642 L

We conclude that 642 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 0.642 liters:

642 cubic centimeters = 0.642 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 1.5576323987539 × 642 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 642 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.5576323987539 liters.

Approximate result

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

642 cm3 ≅ 0.642 L

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