How do you calculate volume in cubic meters?
The formula of cubic meter for measuring different units
- Meter = l × b × h = cubic meters.
- Centimetre = l × b × h ÷ 10,00,000 = cubic meters.
- Millimetre = l × b × h ÷ 1,00,00,00,000 = cubic meters.
- Inches = l × b × h ÷ 61,023.8 = cubic meters.
- Feet = l × b × h ÷ 35.315 = cubic meters.
