Question

1,580 milliliters (mL) is equal to how many liters (L)?

Answer 1

1.58L

Explanation:

To convert from "milli-" to L would be to divide by 1000. One mL is the equivalent to a thousandth of a L, and one L is the equivalent of one thousand mL.

Answer 2

For this case we must make a conversion. By definition, we have to:

1 liter equals 1000 milliliters.

So, we make a rule of three:

1L ------------> 1000mL

x ---------------> 1580mL

Where the variable "x" represents the amount of liters equivalent to 1580 milliliters.

`x = \frac {1580 * 1} {1000}\\x = 1.58`

Thus, 1580 milliliters equals 1.58 liters.

Anwer:

1.58 liters
