How many milliliters are in 1 liter?

• A. 100 ml
• B. 1000 ml
• C. 10000 ml
• D. 1 ml

Answer: (B)

There are 1000 milliliters in one liter because the metric prefix milli means thousandth, and converting from liters to milliliters multiplies by 1000. In practical terms, move the decimal point three places to the right: 1 L becomes 1000 mL. This also aligns with other quick checks—0.5 L is 500 mL, and 2 L is 2000 mL. The other numbers would represent different volumes: 100 mL is 0.1 L, 10 L is 10000 mL, and 1 mL is 0.001 L.
