Conversions
1 microgram = .001 milligrams = .000001 grams
1 gram = 1,000 milligrams = 1,000,000 micrograms
1 milliliter = .001 liters
1 liter = 1000 milliliters
Examples
Convert 2 milligrams to grams.
To convert from milligrams to grams move the decimal point to the left 3 places:
2.0 becomes .002
2.0 milligrams = .002 grams
Convert 1 liter to milliliters.
To convert from liters to milliliters move the decimal point to the right 3 places:
1.0 becomes 1000.0
1.0 liters = 1,000 milliliters
Note
I built this calculator in mind for medications and typical IV fluid volumes. Search elsewhere if you're looking for other applications. Yes, milliliters and cubic centimeters (cc) can be used interchangeably.
