Questions

How do I convert from liters?

Pick the target unit from the table on this page, or open the dedicated pair page — each one carries a converter, a table of common values and the exact factor.

Is liter exact or approximate?

The factor shown (1 L = 1,000 ml) is fixed by definition, so conversions are exact rather than measured.
