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 180 deciliters into liters we have to multiply 180 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

180 dL → V_(L)

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

V_(L) = 180 dL × 0.1 L

V_(L) = 18 L

The final result is:

180 dL → 18 L

We conclude that 180 deciliters is equivalent to 18 liters:

180 deciliters = 18 liters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 liter is equal to 0.055555555555556 × 180 deciliters.
