There are 1000 milliliters in a liter. To convert from liters to milliliters, divide by 1000, and to convert from milliliters to liters, mulitply by 1000. (Liters to milliliters: move decimal 3 places to the left, and for milliliters to liters, move decimal 3 places to the right).
It moves 3 places to the right.
Divide by 1000 or just move the decimal point three places to the left. So answer is .82 Liters.
Litres is three places to the left of milliliters. So you have to move the decimal place three times to the left. So in this case the answer is 2 liters.
To move the decimal you must move the decimal in the divisor all the way to the right to make it a whole number. Then in the dividend, you move that decimal to the right the same amount of spaces you did in the divisor.
