Liters to Quarts Converter

How to convert liters to quarts

quarts = liters ÷ 0.946352946

1 liter is exactly one cubic decimeter (0.001 cubic meter). 1 US liquid quart is 1/4 US gallon (57.75 cubic inches). 1 imperial quart is 1/4 imperial gallon.

Dividing by 0.946352946 is exact. Written as a multiplication the factor is a repeating decimal, 1 L = 1.056688209433… qt, so a rounded multiplier such as 1.057 is slightly off. This converter keeps the exact fraction (500000000/473176473) and rounds only the result it shows.

Worked example: 2 L

1. Start with the value in liters: 2 L.
2. Divide by 0.946352946, because 1 quart = 0.946352946 liters: 2 ÷ 0.946352946 = 2.113376419….
3. Round to the precision you need: 2.11 qt to two decimals.
