This beaker is filled to the 600 mL mark, which is 0.6 litres.

Volume

600 mL

In litres

0.6 L

In cubic centimetres

600 cm³

Fraction of a litre

3/5

• There are 1,000 millilitres in a litre, so converting means dividing by 1,000: 600 ÷ 1000 = 0.6, which is 0.6 L.
• A millilitre and a cubic centimetre are the same volume, so 600 mL is also 600 cm³ — the reason a 1,000 cm³ cube holds exactly one litre.
• As a fraction of a full litre that is 3/5.
• Read a beaker at eye level and take the measurement from the bottom of the curved surface of the liquid, the meniscus — reading from above makes the volume look larger than it is.
