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 72.1 liters into cubic meters we have to multiply 72.1 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

72.1 L → V_(m3)

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

V_(m3) = 72.1 L × 0.001 m3

V_(m3) = 0.0721 m3

The final result is:

72.1 L → 0.0721 m3

We conclude that 72.1 liters is equivalent to 0.0721 cubic meters:

72.1 liters = 0.0721 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 13.869625520111 × 72.1 liters.

Another way is saying that 72.1 liters is equal to 1 ÷ 13.869625520111 cubic meters.

Approximate result

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

72.1 L ≅ 0.072 m3

An alternative is also that one cubic meter is approximately thirteen point eight seven times seventy-two point one liters.
