Conversion formula

The conversion factor from deciliters to liters is 0.1, which means that 1 deciliter is equal to 0.1 liters:

1 dL = 0.1 L

To convert 17 deciliters into liters we have to multiply 17 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from deciliters to liters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dL → 0.1 L

17 dL → V(L)

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

V(L) = 17 dL × 0.1 L

V(L) = 1.7 L

The final result is:

17 dL → 1.7 L

We conclude that 17 deciliters is equivalent to 1.7 liters:

17 deciliters = 1.7 liters
