36.2 m^3 to Liters
1 m^3 = 10^3 L
1 cubic meter = 1,000 Liters
36.2 m^3 = 36.2 x 10^3 L
36.2 m^3 = 36.2 x 1000 L
36.2 m^3 = 36,200 Liters

These are the steps to this problem:
Step 1: Convert from cubic meters to cubic centimeters
Step 2: Convert from cubic centimeters to milliliters
Step 3: Convert from milliliters to liters
Step 1:
The conversion ratio from cubic meters to cubic centimeters is 1m3 = 1,000,000cm3. To see why, imagine a 1m * 1m * 1m cube. Each side is 100cm, so multiplying the sides together gets 100*100*100cm3, or 1,000,000cm3. We have 36.2m3, so that converts to 36,200,000cm3.
Step 2:
Luckily, the conversion from cubic centimeters to ml is easy -- it's just 1 to 1. Since we have 36,200,000cm3, we have 36,200,000 milliliters.
Step 3:
The conversion from ml to liters is 1000ml = 1 liter. Thus, we divide our milliliters by 1000 to get 36,200 liters.
It may seem a little silly to take such careful steps for unit conversions, but you're much more likely to make mistakes if you try to skip steps. Taking a step-by-step approach gets you to your answer safely.
