How to Convert Pints to Liters

To convert a measurement in pints to a measurement in liters, multiply the volume by the following conversion ratio: 0.473176 liters/pint.

Since one pint is equal to 0.473176 liters, you can use this simple formula to convert:

liters = pints × 0.473176

The volume in liters is equal to the volume in pints multiplied by 0.473176.

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

liters = (5 pt × 0.473176) = 2.365882 L

How Many Liters Are in a Pint?

There are 0.473176 liters in a pint, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 pt = 0.473176 L

Pints and liters are both units used to measure volume. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Pint?

The US liquid pint is a unit of fluid volume equal to one-eighth of a gallon, one-half of a quart, or two cups. The liquid pint should not be confused with the dry pint (US) or the imperial pint, which are different units.

The pint is a US customary unit of volume. Pints can be abbreviated as pt; for example, 1 pint can be written as 1 pt.

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.
