1 quart is .946 liters
1.3 quarts = 1.23 liters
When my husband was young, English schools taught the conversions this way: "A liter of water is a pint and three quarters." "Two and a quarter pounds of jam weigh about a kilogram." "A meter measures three foot three - it's longer than a yard, you see."
BTW - England did not end up going metric despite what they taught school children in the '70's. Much like here in that respect.
