Convert cc to deciliter
Please provide values below to convert cc [cc, cm^3] to deciliter [dL], or Convert deciliter to cc.
1 cc, cm^3 = 0.01 dL. To convert cc to deciliter, multiply the value by 0.01; to go the other way, divide by it (1 dL = 100 cc, cm^3). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cc, cm^3 = 0.01 dL
- 1 dL = 100 cc, cm^3
- 10 cc, cm^3 = 0.1 dL
- 100 cc, cm^3 = 1 dL
How to Convert Cc to Deciliter
1 cc, cm^3 = 0.01 dL
Example: convert 15 cc, cm^3 to dL:
15 cc, cm^3 = 15 × 0.01 dL = 0.15 dL

Cc
The cubic centimeter (cc or cm^3) is a unit of volume representing the volume of a cube with sides of one centimeter.
History/Origin
The cubic centimeter has been used in scientific and medical contexts as a convenient measure of small volumes, especially in fields like medicine and engineering, evolving from the metric system's adoption in the 19th century.
Current Use
Today, the cubic centimeter is commonly used to measure small volumes in medicine (e.g., syringe capacities), automotive engine displacements, and scientific applications, often interchangeably with milliliters (mL).
Deciliter
A deciliter (dL) is a unit of volume equal to one-tenth of a liter, commonly used to measure liquids.
History/Origin
The deciliter was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century to provide a convenient subdivision of the liter, facilitating measurements in cooking and scientific contexts.
Current Use
Deciliters are used in various countries for measuring liquids in cooking, nutrition labeling, and scientific experiments, especially where metric units are standard.
