How the Conversion Works

This calculator uses a two-step conversion process through liters (L) as the base unit, which is the standard unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).

Conversion Formula:

Step 1: Convert from mL to liters (L)

Value in L = Input value ÷ 1,000

Step 2: Convert from liters (L) to tsp (Imp)

Result = Value in L × 168.936

Simplified Formula:

Result = Input × 0.168936
Where 0.168936 is the conversion factor from mL to tsp (Imp)

Example Calculation:

Let's convert 16 mL to tsp (Imp):

16 mL ÷ 1,000 = 0.016 L
0.016 L × 168.936 = 2.702976 tsp (Imp)

Result: 16 mL = 2.702976 tsp (Imp)
