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 842 liters into cubic meters we have to multiply 842 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

842 L → V_(m3)

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

V_(m3) = 842 L × 0.001 m3

V_(m3) = 0.842 m3

The final result is:

842 L → 0.842 m3

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

842 liters = 0.842 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 1.187648456057 × 842 liters.

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

Approximate result

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

842 L ≅ 0.842 m3

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