Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\large\boxed{0.2deciliter}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Build your conversion factors using the conversion table:

  • [tex]1 cup = 0.237 liters\implies 1=0.237liters/1cup[/tex]

From the prefixes used in the metric system, you know that 1 deciliter = 0.100 liters. Then:

  • [tex]1 deciliter = 0.100 liters\implies 1=1deciliter/0.100liters[/tex]

Arrange the expression to simplify the units and convert from cups to deciliters:

  • [tex]9cups\times 0.237liters/cup\times 1deciliter/0.100liters=0.2133deciliter[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth: 0.2 deciliter.
