Conversion formula
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 48 liters into deciliters we have to multiply 48 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
48 L → V(dL)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in deciliters:
V(dL) = 48 L × 10 dL
V(dL) = 480 dL
The final result is:
48 L → 480 dL
We conclude that 48 liters is equivalent to 480 deciliters:
48 liters = 480 deciliters
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 deciliter is equal to 0.0020833333333333 × 48 liters.
Another way is saying that 48 liters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0020833333333333 deciliters.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty-eight liters is approximately four hundred eighty deciliters:
48 L ≅ 480 dL
An alternative is also that one deciliter is approximately zero point zero zero two times forty-eight liters.
