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 38.8 liters into deciliters we have to multiply 38.8 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
38.8 L → V(dL)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in deciliters:
V(dL) = 38.8 L × 10 dL
V(dL) = 388 dL
The final result is:
38.8 L → 388 dL
We conclude that 38.8 liters is equivalent to 388 deciliters:
38.8 liters = 388 deciliters
