| Dram (dr) | Cubic Decimeter (dm³) |
|---|---|
| 1 dr | 0.003776 dm³ |
| 2 dr | 0.007552 dm³ |
| 3 dr | 0.011328 dm³ |
| 4 dr | 0.015104 dm³ |
| 5 dr | 0.018880 dm³ |
| 6 dr | 0.022656 dm³ |
| 7 dr | 0.026432 dm³ |
| 8 dr | 0.030208 dm³ |
| 9 dr | 0.033984 dm³ |
| 10 dr | 0.037760 dm³ |
1 dr = 0.003776 dm³
Example 1:
Convert 10 dr to dm³:
10 dr = 10 × 0.003776 dm³ = 0.03776 dm³
Example 2:
Convert 25 dr to dm³:
25 dr = 25 × 0.003776 dm³ = 0.0944 dm³
