Conversion formula

The conversion factor from milliliters to deciliters is 0.01, which means that 1 milliliter is equal to 0.01 deciliters:

1 ml = 0.01 dL

To convert 1500 milliliters into deciliters we have to multiply 1500 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from milliliters to deciliters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ml → 0.01 dL

1500 ml → V_(dL)

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

V_(dL) = 1500 ml × 0.01 dL

V_(dL) = 15 dL

The final result is:

1500 ml → 15 dL

We conclude that 1500 milliliters is equivalent to 15 deciliters:

1500 milliliters = 15 deciliters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 deciliter is equal to 0.066666666666667 × 1500 milliliters.

Another way is saying that 1500 milliliters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.066666666666667 deciliters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand five hundred milliliters is approximately fifteen deciliters:

1500 ml ≅ 15 dL

An alternative is also that one deciliter is approximately zero point zero six seven times one thousand five hundred milliliters.
