Conversion formula

The conversion factor from cubic inches to deciliters is 0.163870640693, which means that 1 cubic inch is equal to 0.163870640693 deciliters:

1 in3 = 0.163870640693 dL

To convert 42 cubic inches into deciliters we have to multiply 42 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from cubic inches to deciliters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 in3 → 0.163870640693 dL

42 in3 → V_(dL)

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

V_(dL) = 42 in3 × 0.163870640693 dL

V_(dL) = 6.882566909106 dL

The final result is:

42 in3 → 6.882566909106 dL

We conclude that 42 cubic inches is equivalent to 6.882566909106 deciliters:

42 cubic inches = 6.882566909106 deciliters

Alternative conversion
