Conversion Formula
The formula to convert liters to quarts is: Quarts = Liters × 1.057. This works because 1 liter equals 1.057 quarts, a measure used in the US customary system. By multiplying liters by this factor, you change from metric to US volume units.
For example, converting 2 liters: 2 × 1.057 = 2.114 quarts. This step-by-step shows how each liter is scaled to quarts based on the conversion factor.
Conversion Example
- Convert 10 liters:
- Step 1: Write the formula: quarts = liters × 1.057
- Step 2: Substitute 10 for liters: 10 × 1.057
- Step 3: Calculate: 10 × 1.057 = 10.57 quarts
- Convert 0.5 liters:
- Step 1: Formula: quarts = 0.5 × 1.057
- Step 2: Multiply: 0.5 × 1.057 = 0.5285 quarts
- Convert 7.3 liters:
- Step 1: Use formula: quarts = 7.3 × 1.057
- Step 2: Calculate: 7.3 × 1.057 = 7.7121 quarts

Conversion FAQs
How accurate is the conversion factor from liters to quarts?
The conversion factor 1 liter = 1.057 quarts is based on exact measurement standards. While minor differences may occur depending on measurement precision, this factor is highly accurate for most practical purposes.
Can I use this conversion for other volume measurements?
This conversion specifically applies to US quarts and metric liters. For other systems like UK quarts or imperial gallons, different conversion factors are necessary, which are not covered here.
Why is the conversion factor slightly above 1?
Because a quart is slightly larger than a liter in volume, the factor exceeds 1. This slight difference reflects the US customary system’s larger quart size compared to a liter’s metric volume standard.
Is there a simple way to remember the conversion factor?
Remembering that 1 liter is roughly equal to a little over 1 quart, specifically 1.057, helps in quick mental calculations. For rough estimates, using 1.06 can also be acceptable.
