How many litres is this suitcase?

[Vanilla]

Need a new backpack for my travels soon!

Anyone able to have a guess at how many litres this suitcase is so I know to buy the right size backpack? I'm useless and there's no stickers anywhere that says how many litres this is!

 

[Disco Boy]

why not measure it and calculate for yourself?

Measure the dimensions

1 litre = 1000 cubic centimetres.

Fill it with water.

Fill it with water.

Sorry, yeah this would work as well, probably more accurate than my way.

Buy some more coke bottles and see how many you can fit in. Then do a little math.

 

[JonJ678]

Measure the width, height and depth using a tape measure, in cm. Then multiply them together on a calculator to get the volume in milliliters. Divide by a thousand to get the volume in litres.

Any guess we take will be terribly inaccurate compared to this

 

[mjt]

use a tape measure

one cubic metre = 1000 litres. work it out

Take it to the backpack shop and buy the backpack that the suitcase fits inside.
