Converting from Cubic Decameter (dam³) to Liter (L)

What is Cubic Decameter (dam³)

Cubic decameter, abbreviated as dam³, is a unit of volume in the metric system. It represents the volume of a cube that has sides measuring one decameter each. A decameter is equivalent to 10 meters. Therefore, one cubic decameter is a significant measure of volume, commonly used to express larger quantities of liquids or gases.

What is Liter (L)

The liter, denoted as L, is another unit of volume commonly used in everyday life and scientific contexts. One liter is defined as the volume of a cube that measures 10 centimeters on each side. It is widely used to measure liquids and is part of the metric system. The liter is much smaller than the cubic decameter and is the unit most commonly encountered in kitchens, laboratories, and during vehicle fuel measurements.

Conversion Formulas

To convert between these two units, the following formulas can be used:

• From cubic decameters to liters:

  Volume in liters=Volume in dam³×1000000

• From liters to cubic decameters:

  Volume in dam³=Volume in L×0.000001

These formulas provide a direct method for converting between cubic decameters and liters, focusing on their relationship within the metric system.

Examples

1. To convert 1 cubic decameter to liters:

   1dam³=1×1000000L=1000000L

2. For 5 cubic decameters:

   5dam³=5×1000000L=5000000L

3. Converting 16 cubic decameters:

   16dam³=16×1000000L=16000000L

4. To convert 6 cubic decameters to liters:

   6dam³=6×1000000L=6000000L

5. When converting from liters back to cubic decameters, for example, converting 5 liters:

   5L=5×0.000001dam³=0.000005dam³

6. For 16 liters:

   16L=16×0.000001dam³=0.000016dam³

7. And for 6 liters:

   6L=6×0.000001dam³=0.000006dam³
