Understanding the Conversion

This calculator converts weight from pounds (a unit of mass) to volume in liters (a unit of volume). The conversion is based on the density of water, where approximately 1 pound of water equals 0.453592 liters.

Note: This conversion assumes the substance being measured is water. For other substances with different densities, the conversion would yield different results for the same weight.
