Enter the volume in cubic centimeters below to convert it to milliliters.

Result in Milliliters:

1 cm³ = 1 mL

How to Convert Cubic Centimeters to Milliliters

To convert a measurement in cubic centimeters to a measurement in milliliters, divide the volume by the following conversion ratio: 1 cubic centimeters/milliliter.

Since one milliliter is equal to 1 cubic centimeter, you can use this simple formula to convert:

milliliters = cubic centimeters ÷ 1

The volume in milliliters is equal to the volume in cubic centimeters divided by 1.

For example, here's how to convert 5 cubic centimeters to milliliters using the formula above.

milliliters = (5 cm³ ÷ 1) = 5 mL

How Many Milliliters Are in a Cubic Centimeter?

There are 1 milliliter in a cubic centimeter, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 cm³ = 1 mL

Cubic centimeters and milliliters are both units used to measure volume. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Cubic Centimeter?

The cubic centimeter is a unit that is equal to the volume of a cube with one centimeter sides. One cubic centimeter is equal to about 0.061 cubic inches.^[1]

The cubic centimeter, or cubic centimetre, is a multiple of the cubic meter, which is the SI derived unit for volume. In the metric system, "centi" is the prefix for hundredths, or 10^-2. Cubic centimeters can be abbreviated as cm³, and are also sometimes abbreviated as cu cm, cc, or ccm. For example, 1 cubic centimeter can be written as 1 cm³, 1 cu cm, 1 cc, or 1 ccm.

What Is a Milliliter?

The milliliter is a unit of volume equal to 1 cubic centimeter, 1/1,000 of a liter, or about 0.061 cubic inches.^[1]

The milliliter is an SI unit of volume in the metric system. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10^-3. A milliliter is sometimes also referred to as a millilitre. Milliliters can be abbreviated as mL, and are also sometimes abbreviated as ml or mℓ. For example, 1 milliliter can be written as 1 mL, 1 ml, or 1 mℓ.

Since one milliliter is equivalent to one cubic centimeter, milliliters are sometimes expressed using the abbreviation for a cubic centimeter (cc) for things such as medical dosages or engine displacements.
