Convert Liter to Pint (US)
Liter
The liter (L) is a unit of volume in the metric system. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides that are each 10 centimeters long, which is equivalent to 1,000 cubic centimeters (cm³) or 0.001 cubic meters (m³). One liter is also equivalent to 1,000 milliliters (mL).
The liter was originally introduced in France in the 18th century as part of the metric system during the French Revolution. It was based on the volume of 1 kilogram of water at the temperature of its maximum density, which is about 4°C. Over time, the liter became a standard unit for measuring liquids and volumes in many countries around the world. Although the liter is not an SI base unit (the SI unit of volume is the cubic meter), it is accepted for use with the SI, and it remains widely used internationally for measuring everyday volumes, such as beverages, fuel, and cooking ingredients.
Pint (US)
The US pint is a unit of volume in the U.S. customary system. It is equal to 1/2 of a US quart, or 16 fluid ounces. One US pint is approximately 0.473176 liters. It is commonly used to measure liquid volumes, particularly in cooking, beverages (like beer or milk), and packaging.
The US pint is derived from the US gallon, which was defined in 1824 as 231 cubic inches. The US pint is standardized as 1/8th of a US gallon or 1/2 of a US quart. The pint was originally based on the British pint, which was used in medieval England and defined as the volume of a pound of water. However, after the redefinition of the US gallon, the US pint became slightly smaller than the British pint, which is about 0.568 liters. Despite the differences, the US pint is widely used in the United States for measuring liquid quantities, especially in cooking, food packaging, and beverages.
