decaliter to deciliter
Convert decaliter (daL) to deciliter (dL). Use an editable volume converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 daL = 100 dL
Conversion formula
One decaliter equals 100 deciliter. Multiply your value in decaliter by this factor to get deciliter. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 decaliter:5 × 100 = 500 dL

About these measurements
Volume describes three-dimensional space or liquid capacity.
The base reference used here is the liter. One decaliter is 10 base units; one deciliter is 0.1 base units.
Important distinctions
US liquid measures and Imperial measures are different. Dry gallons and recipe cups are excluded.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
