Conversion of Capacity

Example 1:

¾ L = _____ mL
1 L = 1000 mL
So, ¾ x 1000 = 750 mL

Example 2:

12.003 kL = ____ L
1 kL = 1000 L
So, 12.003 kL = 12.003 x 1000 = 12003 L

Example 3:

5 L 4 dL 6 cL 5 mL = _________mL

1L = 1000 mL
So, 5 L = 5 x 1000 = 5000 mL

1 dL = 100 mL
So, 4 dL = 4 x 100 = 400 mL

1 cL = 10 mL
So, 6 cL = 6 x 10 = 60 mL

(5000 + 400 + 60 + 5) mL = 5465 mL
