Litres to millilitres can be easily converted by knowing the relationship between them. Both litres and millilitres are units of volume of a liquid. A litre is the fundamental unit of capacity of liquid. The other units to measure the volume of liquid are millilitres, centilitres and kilolitres. The values of all these units differ from each other. Similarly, both litres and millilitres represent the volume but the value of 1 litre is equal to 1000 millilitres (1 L = 1000 mL).

Litres to Millimeters Conversion
To convert a value in litres to millilitres we can use the below formula:
1 Litre = 1000 Millilitres
So for any value of capacity of liquid in litres, we can multiply the volume by 1000 to get the value in millilitres. Let us see the below table to get converted values from litres to millilitres.

Millilitres to Litres
To convert the value of liquid from millimetres to litres, we can use the below formula:
1 mL = 0.001 L
The above expression can be derived from the formula:
1 L = 1000 mL
1000 mL = 1 L
1 mL = 1/1000 L
1 mL = 0.001 L
We can find the equivalent value of volume in millilitres to litres as given in the following table.

Solved Examples on Litres to Millilitres
Q.1: How many 250 mL is there in 1 Litre?
Solution: Since, we know that;
1 litre = 1000 mL
If we divide 1000mL by 250mL, we get;
1000/250 = 4
Or we can also write in a way;
1 L = 4 x 250 mL
1 L = (250 + 250 + 250 + 250) mL
Therefore, there are four 250 mL in 1 litre.
Q.2: How many 500 mL are there in 1 L?
Solution: Since we know that;
1 litre = 1000 mL
1 litre = 2 x 500 mL
Hence, there are two 500 mL in 1 Litre.
Q.3: Convert 35 litres into millilitres.
Solution: Since, we know that;
1 Litre = 1000 mL
Therefore,
35 litres = 35 x 1000 mL
= 35, 000 mL
Therefore, 35 litres is equal to 35, 000 millilitres.
Q.4: Convert 0.15 L into millilitres.
Solution: As we know that;
1 litre = 1000 mL
Therefore,
0.15 L = 0.15 x 1000 mL
= 150 mL
Hence, 0.15 L is equivalent to 150 millilitres.
