The prefix milli- in the metric system means "one thousand." That means 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters.

To convert 1.78 liters to milliliters, multiply 1.78 by 1000:

1.78\: \text{liters} * \frac{1000 \text{milliliters}}{1 \: \text{liter}} = 1780 \: \text{milliliters}

-------

Answer: 1780 milliliters

There are 1,000 milliliters in one liter.
Multiply 1.78 liters by 1,000 to find how many milliliters there are.

1.78 × 1,000 = 1,780 milliliters
