Actually you are not converting meters to liters - you are converting cubic meters to liters
(Your teacher would probably remind you of that).
Now for the problem.

wolf1728 · Answer

Fish tank volume = .4 m * .2 m * .3 m = .024 cubic meters One cubic meter 1,000 litres Source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_meter .024 * 1,000 = 24 litres (Edited for correction)

Ok so one cubic meter is 1,00 liters. I had everything correct, but .024 did not seem right. Thanks for helping.
