Answer:

Answer: The correct option is (a) 21.3 dL.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the number of deciliters that are equivalent to 9 cups.

Given that,

1 cup = 0.237 liters.

We know that

1 liter = 10 deciliters. So, we get

0.237 liters = 0.237 × 10 deciliters = 2.37 deciliters.

This implies that

1 cup = 2.37 deciliters.

Therefore, we get

9 cups = 2.37 × 9 deciliters = 21.33 deciliters.

Rounding to nearest tenth, we get

Thus, 9 cups are equivalent to 21.3 deciliters.

Option (a) is CORRECT.
