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 20.4 milliliters into deciliters we have to multiply 20.4 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

20.4 ml → V_(dL)

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

V_(dL) = 20.4 ml × 0.01 dL

V_(dL) = 0.204 dL

The final result is:

20.4 ml → 0.204 dL

We conclude that 20.4 milliliters is equivalent to 0.204 deciliters:

20.4 milliliters = 0.204 deciliters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 deciliter is equal to 4.9019607843137 × 20.4 milliliters.

Another way is saying that 20.4 milliliters is equal to 1 ÷ 4.9019607843137 deciliters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty point four milliliters is approximately zero point two zero four deciliters:

20.4 ml ≅ 0.204 dL

An alternative is also that one deciliter is approximately four point nine zero two times twenty point four milliliters.
