Convert deciliter to milliliter
Please provide values below to convert deciliter [dL] to milliliter [mL], or Convert milliliter to deciliter.
1 dL = 100 mL. To convert deciliter to milliliter, multiply the value by 100; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mL = 0.01 dL). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 dL = 100 mL
- 1 mL = 0.01 dL
- 10 dL = 1000 mL
- 100 dL = 10000 mL
How to Convert Deciliter to Milliliter
1 dL = 100 mL
Example: convert 15 dL to mL:
15 dL = 15 × 100 mL = 1500 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.
Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter, commonly used to measure small quantities of liquids.
History/Origin
The milliliter was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century, aligning with the liter as the base unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
The milliliter is widely used in science, medicine, cooking, and everyday measurements to quantify liquids and small volumes.
