A dL is a deciliter which is 1 tenth of a liter (1 dL = 0.1 L) and a centiliter is 1 hundredth of a liter (1 cL = 0.01 L), so a dL is ten times larger than a cL.

In the metric system, "dL" stands for deciliter, which is a unit of volume equivalent to one-tenth of a liter. It is commonly used to measure liquid volumes in recipes and for medical purposes.
