Anyone know how much 1dl (deciliter) of uncooked oats is in grams?

I don't have a scale and I couldn't find anything trustworthy on the internet.
Could you maybe take a picture as proof, too, where you show how many grams 1dl of oats is?
(i.e. put a meassuring cup on the scale, fill with oats, and take a picture so you can see the weight in grams and the amount in dl/ml)

It's because most of the world doesn't use DL, and worse still, a lot of the online sites are American (their system of measurements isn't even decimalised, it's like the French revolution never happened)

The trick is to look for grams to ml and multiply that figure by 100 to get the dl result.

For example 1 ml of oats is 0.38 grams, so 1 dl is 38 grams.

I have never heard of deciliter.

1 dl are 100ml, and ml are liquid and therefore, harder to convert into solids like g, but for sugar it'd be 90g, so I'd just go with that.
I'm also so shocked how many of you guys haven't herd of that lol, I guess it's just not common for non-metric users but here in europe we learned that in pretty early on :)

I'm pretty sure here in Australia we don't use that measurement.
