Conversion formula
How to convert 74 meters to decimeters?

We know (by definition) that: 1 m = 10 dm.

We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of decimeters.

1 m / 74 m = 10 dm / x dm

Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown x:

x dm = (74 m / 1 m) * 10 dm → x dm = 740 dm

Conclusion:

74 m = 740 dm

Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.00135135135135135 times 74 meters.
