DL to liter converter (dL to L)

Conversion Formula

1 dL = 0.100000 L

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Deciliter = 1.00e-4 cubic meters
   1 Liter = 0.001000 cubic meters
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 dL = (1.00e-4 m³) / (0.001000 m³/L) = 0.100000 L
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in dL by 0.100000 to get the equivalent in L

Example Conversion

Convert 5 dL to L:

5 dL × 0.100000 = 0.500000 L
