The conversion factor from liters to deciliters is 10, which means that 1 liter is equal to 10 deciliters:

1 L = 10 dL

To convert 4212 liters into deciliters we have to multiply 4212 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from liters to deciliters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 L → 10 dL

4212 L → V_(dL)

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

V_(dL) = 4212 L × 10 dL

V_(dL) = 42120 dL

The final result is:

4212 L → 42120 dL

We conclude that 4212 liters is equivalent to 42120 deciliters:
