What does liter per meter (L/m) measure?

It measures the volume of fuel consumed per meter traveled, commonly used for very short distances and precise fuel consumption modeling.

When is gigameter per liter (Gm/L) useful?

Gm/L is mainly for theoretical or educational scenarios involving large distances and small volumes, such as interplanetary propulsion comparisons.

How do I convert from L/m to Gm/L?

Multiply the value in L/m by 1 × 10⁻⁹ to get the equivalent value in Gm/L.
