Conversion formula

The conversion factor from liters to deciliters is 10, which means that 1 liter is equal to 10 deciliters:

1 L = 10 dL

To convert 10.4 liters into deciliters we have to multiply 10.4 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from liters to deciliters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 L → 10 dL

10.4 L → V_(dL)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in deciliters:

V_(dL) = 10.4 L × 10 dL

V_(dL) = 104 dL

The final result is:

10.4 L → 104 dL

We conclude that 10.4 liters is equivalent to 104 deciliters:

10.4 liters = 104 deciliters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 deciliter is equal to 0.0096153846153846 × 10.4 liters.

Another way is saying that 10.4 liters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0096153846153846 deciliters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that ten point four liters is approximately one hundred four deciliters:

10.4 L ≅ 104 dL

An alternative is also that one deciliter is approximately zero point zero one times ten point four liters.
