How to Convert Hectometer/liter to Meter/liter
1 hm/L = 100 m/L
Example: convert 15 hm/L to m/L:
15 hm/L = 15 × 100 m/L = 1500 m/L

Hectometer/liter
A hectometer per liter (hm/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the number of hectometers traveled per liter of fuel used.
History/Origin
The hectometer, as a metric unit of length, was introduced with the metric system in the 19th century. The combination with liters for fuel consumption is a less common, regional unit used primarily in some European contexts, but it has not been widely adopted internationally.
Current Use
The hm/L unit is rarely used in modern contexts; it may appear in specific regional or historical data related to fuel efficiency, but most countries now prefer units like liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) or miles per gallon (mpg).
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rarely used in practical applications; it may appear in specialized scientific or engineering contexts but is generally superseded by more conventional fuel efficiency units in everyday use.
