Understanding the Conversion Factor:
The conversion factor between liters and cups is:
-
- 1 liter = 4.22675 U.S. cups (This is the standard conversion used for U.S. measurements)
- Multiply the Number of Liters by the Conversion Factor:
Since you want to convert 4 liters to cups, you need to multiply 4 by the conversion factor of 4.22675.
4liters×4.22675cups/liter=16.907cups
This means that:
- 4 liters is approximately 16.907 U.S. cups.
- Rounding:
If you need to round to a practical value (for cooking or general use), you can round 16.907 cups to 16.91 cups or simply 16.9 cups.
Quick Reference:
- 1 liter = 4.22675 cups
- 4 liters = 16.91 cups
If you’re using a different type of cup, such as a metric cup (used in some countries), the conversion factor might differ slightly, but for standard U.S. cups, the above is the correct calculation.
