How to Convert Meter/liter to Gigameter/liter
1 m/L = 1e-09 Gm/L
Example: convert 15 m/L to Gm/L:
15 m/L = 15 × 1e-09 Gm/L = 1.5e-08 Gm/L

Meter/liter
The meter per liter (m/L) is a unit used to measure fuel efficiency, indicating the distance traveled in meters per liter of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The m/L unit has been used historically in certain regions to express fuel efficiency, especially in contexts where metric units are standard. It is less common today, having been largely replaced by kilometers per liter (km/L) or miles per gallon (mpg).
Current Use
Currently, the meter per liter is rarely used in practical applications; it may appear in specialized scientific or engineering contexts but is generally superseded by more conventional fuel efficiency units in everyday use.
Gigameter/liter
Gigameter per liter (Gm/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance traveled in gigameters per liter of fuel used.
History/Origin
The gigameter (Gm) is a metric unit of length equal to one billion meters, introduced as part of the metric system. The use of Gm/L in fuel consumption is uncommon and mainly theoretical, as typical units are km/L or miles per gallon.
Current Use
Gm/L is rarely used in practical applications; it may appear in scientific contexts or large-scale theoretical calculations involving vast distances and fuel efficiency, but it is not a standard unit in everyday fuel consumption measurements.
