🤔 How Does This Work?
Our Volume Converter converts all values through millilitres (ml) as the base unit:
1 ml = 1 ml (base unit)
1 litre = 1,000 ml
1 cubic metre = 1,000,000 ml
1 US fluid ounce = 29.5735 ml
1 US cup = 236.588 ml
1 US pint = 473.176 ml
1 US quart = 946.353 ml
1 US gallon = 3,785.41 ml
1 UK gallon = 4,546.09 ml

❓ FAQ
How many ml is 1 litre?▼
1 litre = 1,000 millilitres exactly. This is the most fundamental volume conversion — the metric system is based on multiples of 10, making it beautifully simple.
How many litres is 1 US gallon?▼
1 US gallon = 3.78541 litres. Note: the UK gallon is different — 1 UK (Imperial) gallon = 4.54609 litres. Always check which gallon is being used, especially for fuel economy calculations.
How many cups in a litre?▼
1 litre = approximately 4.227 US cups. Or 1 US cup = approximately 236.6 ml. For cooking, a rough guide is 1 litre = about 4 cups (slightly more than 4 precisely).
How many fluid ounces in a litre?▼
1 litre = 33.814 US fluid ounces. Or about 35.195 UK fluid ounces (slightly different). A standard water bottle is 500 ml = about 16.9 US fluid ounces.
What is the difference between a US gallon and UK gallon?▼
A US gallon = 3.785 litres. A UK (Imperial) gallon = 4.546 litres. The UK gallon is about 20% larger than the US gallon. This matters for fuel efficiency: a UK car doing 40 mpg (miles per gallon) is NOT the same as a US car doing 40 mpg!
