Convert drop to liter

Learn how to convert 1 drop to liter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (d r o p) = x (l i t e r)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (d r o p) = 7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 8} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 8} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (l i t e r) = 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (d r o p) = x (l i t e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 8} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 8} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 8} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 10^{- 3} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 8} = x \times 10^{- 3}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

7.78866844846491 \times {10^{- 8}}^{10^{- 5}} = x \times 10^{- 3}

Simplify

7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 5} = x

Switch sides

x = 7.78866844846491 \times 10^{- 5}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000778867 \approx 7.7887 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (d r o p) \approx 7.7887 \times 10^{- 5} (l i t e r)
