Convert liter to megaliter
Please provide values below to convert liter [L, l] to megaliter [ML], or Convert megaliter to liter.
1 L, l = 1e-06 ML. To convert liter to megaliter, multiply the value by 1e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ML = 1000000 L, l). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 L, l = 1e-06 ML
- 1 ML = 1000000 L, l
- 10 L, l = 1e-05 ML
- 100 L, l = 0.0001 ML
How to Convert Liter to Megaliter
1 L, l = 1e-06 ML
Example: convert 15 L, l to ML:
15 L, l = 15 × 1e-06 ML = 1.5e-05 ML

Liter
The liter (L, l) is a metric unit of volume equal to one cubic decimeter, commonly used to measure liquids and other substances.
History/Origin
The liter was introduced in France in 1795 as part of the metric system, based on the cubic decimeter, and has since become a standard unit of volume worldwide.
Current Use
The liter is widely used in science, industry, and daily life for measuring liquids, beverages, and other fluids, especially in countries using the metric system.
Megaliter
A megaliter (ML) is a unit of volume equal to one million liters.
History/Origin
The megaliter is part of the metric system, introduced as a larger unit for measuring large volumes, especially in water management and environmental contexts, following the adoption of the metric system in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Current Use
Megaliters are used today in fields such as hydrology, water resource management, and environmental science to quantify large volumes of liquids, particularly water.
