How many milliliters are in a liter?

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this conversion problem, follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Recognize the standard conversion in the metric system where 1 liter is equivalent to 1,000 milliliters.
  • Step 2: Apply this knowledge directly to the problem.
