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 1700 deciliters into liters we have to multiply 1700 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

1700 dL → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 1700 dL × 0.1 L

V_(L) = 170 L

The final result is:

1700 dL → 170 L

We conclude that 1700 deciliters is equivalent to 170 liters:

1700 deciliters = 170 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 0.0058823529411765 × 1700 deciliters.
