Conversion Formula
The formula to convert pints to liters is simple: multiply the number of pints by 0.4732. This works because 1 pint equals exactly 0.4732 liters, a conversion factor based on the US customary pint. For example, converting 3 pints:
- 3 pints x 0.4732 = 1.4196 liters
- Thus, 3 pints equal about 1.4196 liters
Conversion Example
Suppose you want to convert 5 pints:
- Step 1: Take the number of pints, which is 5
- Step 2: Multiply 5 by 0.4732
- Step 3: 5 x 0.4732 = 2.366 liters
- Result: 5 pints equal approximately 2.366 liters
Another example with 1 pint:
- 1 x 0.4732 = 0.4732 liters

Conversion Definitions
Pints
Pints are units of volume measurement, primarily used in the US and UK, to quantify liquids. The US pint equals 16 fluid ounces, while the UK pint equals 20 fluid ounces, with slight differences affecting conversions to liters.
Liter
The liter is a metric unit of volume equal to one cubic decimeter, used globally for measuring liquids. It is part of the metric system, with 1 liter roughly equivalent to 1.057 quarts in US customary units and 0.879 gallons in UK gallons.
Conversion FAQs
How accurate is the conversion from pints to liters?
The conversion uses the standard factor of 0.4732 liters per pint, which is accurate for US customary pints. Variations may occur with UK pints or different measurement standards, but for most applications, this value provides reliable results.
Can I convert pints to liters manually without a calculator?
Yes, by multiplying the number of pints by 0.4732 or using approximation methods. For example, 2 pints roughly equal 0.9464 liters, which can be estimated as just under 1 liter for quick calculations.
Is there a difference when converting for dry pints?
Yes, dry pints measure dry volume, which differs from liquid pints, and their conversion to liters requires different factors. The above conversion applies only to liquid pints, so for dry measurements, consult specific conversion tables.
