Conversion formula

The conversion factor from cubic centimeters to deciliters is 0.01, which means that 1 cubic centimeter is equal to 0.01 deciliters:

1 cm3 = 0.01 dL

To convert 397.1 cubic centimeters into deciliters we have to multiply 397.1 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from cubic centimeters to deciliters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 cm3 → 0.01 dL

397.1 cm3 → V_(dL)

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

V_(dL) = 397.1 cm3 × 0.01 dL

V_(dL) = 3.971 dL

The final result is:

397.1 cm3 → 3.971 dL

We conclude that 397.1 cubic centimeters is equivalent to 3.971 deciliters:

397.1 cubic centimeters = 3.971 deciliters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 deciliter is equal to 0.25182573659028 × 397.1 cubic centimeters.

Another way is saying that 397.1 cubic centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.25182573659028 deciliters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred ninety-seven point one cubic centimeters is approximately three point nine seven one deciliters:

397.1 cm3 ≅ 3.971 dL

An alternative is also that one deciliter is approximately zero point two five two times three hundred ninety-seven point one cubic centimeters.
