On litre is a cube 10 cm (0.1 m) to a side. So there are 10^3 or 1000 litre in one cubic metre.

1 m ³ = 1 x 1 x 1 m ³
1m ³ = 10² x 10² x 10² cm ³
But 1 litre = 10³ cm ³ and therefore:-
1m ³ = (10² x 10² x 10²) / 10³ litres
1 m ³ = 10³ litres = 1000 litres

in a cube of 10 cm by 10cm by 10 cm is exactly ONE liter of liquid
10 cm is called a decimeter.
a cubic meter has 10 decimeters as length, width and height
so ther are 10 * 10 * 10 liters in it.

1 Liter = 10cm x 10 cm x 10cm = 1000 cubic centimeters (c^3)
1 cubic meter (m^3) = 100cm x 100cm x 100cm =1,000,000 (c^3)
1,000,000 (c^3) / 1,000 (c^3) = X Liters / 1 (m^3) = 1,000 L
Hope that helps.

1 L=1 dm^3 so
1 m^3=1,000 L
