Milliliters to Quarts
Convert milliliters (mL) to quarts (qt). Both measure capacity and volume, and the conversion comes up in cooking, chemistry, fuel work.
The Formula
``
quarts = milliliters × 0.00105668820943
milliliters = quarts × 946.352946
`
One milliliter is 0.001057 quarts, and one quart is 946.3529 milliliters.

What Each Unit Is
Milliliters (mL) — one thousandth of a litre, equal to one cubic centimetre. The metric unit for small volumes; medicine and cooking both work in millilitres.
Quarts (qt) — a quarter of a US gallon, or 0.946352946 litres. From the Latin quartus, a fourth part of a gallon.
A Sense of Scale
A teaspoon is 5 mL- An espresso is 30 mL
- A wine glass pour is 150 mL
- A US quart is just under a litre
- Ice cream is sold by the quart
- A quart is two pints
Precision
The factor 0.00105668820943 is rounded. For engineering work carry more digits than the table above, and round only at the end — rounding at each step compounds.

How Many Decimals Do You Need?
Rounding the factor costs accuracy, and how much depends on the factor. Converting 137 mL with the factor truncated at each decimal place:
| Decimals kept | Factor | 137 mL becomes | Error |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 100.0000% |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 100.0000% |
| 2 | 0 | 0 | 100.0000% |
| 3 | 0.001 | 0.137 | 5.3647% |
| 4 | 0.0011 | 0.1507 | 4.0988% |
The right number of significant figures is set by your input, not by the converter. If you measured milliliters to three significant figures, the answer in quarts is only good to three — writing more digits claims precision the measurement never had.
