CL to cubic decimeter converter (cL to dm3)

Conversion Formula

1 cL = 0.010000 dm3

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Centiliter = 1.00e-5 cubic meters
   1 Cubic Decimeter = 0.001000 cubic meters
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 cL = (1.00e-5 m³) / (0.001000 m³/dm3) = 0.010000 dm3
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in cL by 0.010000 to get the equivalent in dm3

Example Conversion

Convert 5 cL to dm3:

5 cL × 0.010000 = 0.050000 dm3
