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 842 cubic centimeters into liters we have to multiply 842 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

842 cm3 → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 842 cm3 × 0.001 L

V_(L) = 0.842 L

The final result is:

842 cm3 → 0.842 L

We conclude that 842 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 0.842 liters:

842 cubic centimeters = 0.842 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 1.187648456057 × 842 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 842 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.187648456057 liters.

Approximate result

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

842 cm3 ≅ 0.842 L

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