  • To convert liters to milliliters, we multiply the given quantity by 1000. For example, let us convert 6 liters to milliliters. So, 6 × 1000 = 6000 ml. Therefore, 6 liters = 6000 milliliters.
  • However, it should be noted that to convert milliliters to liters, we divide the given quantity by 1000. For example, let us convert 7000 milliliters to liters. So, 7000 ÷ 1000 = 7 liters. Therefore, 7000 milliliters = 7 liters.
