The Quick Method for changing milliliters to liters is to write the equivalent that you need, show which way the decimal point should move by drawing an arrow, make sure the open part of the arrow always faces the larger measure, and remember that 1 L = 1000 mL; the liter is the larger measure (725 mL < x L).
