DL to cubic decimeter converter (dL to dm3)

Conversion Formula

1 dL = 0.100000 dm3

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Deciliter = 1.00e-4 cubic meters
   1 Cubic Decimeter = 0.001000 cubic meters
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 dL = (1.00e-4 m³) / (0.001000 m³/dm3) = 0.100000 dm3
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in dL by 0.100000 to get the equivalent in dm3

Example Conversion

Convert 5 dL to dm3:

5 dL × 0.100000 = 0.500000 dm3
