How to Convert Liters to Cubic Feet

To convert a measurement in liters to a measurement in cubic feet, multiply the volume by the following conversion ratio: 0.035315 cubic feet/liter.

Since one liter is equal to 0.035315 cubic feet, you can use this simple formula to convert:

cubic feet = liters × 0.035315

The volume in cubic feet is equal to the volume in liters multiplied by 0.035315.

For example, here's how to convert 5 liters to cubic feet using the formula above.

cubic feet = (5 L × 0.035315) = 0.176573 ft³

What Is a Liter?

A liter is a unit of volume equal to 1,000 cubic centimeters or 0.264172 US gallons.[1] The liter is a special name defined for the cubic decimeter and is exactly equal to the volume of one cubic decimeter (1 decimeter is 1/10 of a meter, or 10 centimeters).

The liter is an SI accepted unit for volume for use with the metric system. A liter is sometimes also referred to as a litre. Liters can be abbreviated as L, and are also sometimes abbreviated as l or ℓ. For example, 1 liter can be written as 1 L, 1 l, or 1 ℓ.
