Liters to Us Quarts
The liter is the standard metric unit of volume, used worldwide for beverages, fuel, and everyday liquid measures. A US quart is 2 pints, about 946 milliliters, used for milk, oil, and food storage containers in the US. 1 L equals ≈1.05669 qt, so converting between them is a matter of multiplying by that fixed factor — type any value into the converter below and both sides update instantly as you type.
Both units belong to volume, measured here against volume's base unit (L) — every other volume unit on this site converts through that same reference point, which is why the table below can also be read as a quick cross-check against nearby values.
Formula
qt = L × ≈1.05669
L = qt × ≈0.946353
Worked example: 5 L × ≈1.05669 = ≈5.28344 qt.
