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 71.5 liters into deciliters we have to multiply 71.5 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

71.5 L → V_(dL)

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

V_(dL) = 71.5 L × 10 dL

V_(dL) = 715 dL

The final result is:

71.5 L → 715 dL

We conclude that 71.5 liters is equivalent to 715 deciliters:

71.5 liters = 715 deciliters
