Result

The conversion result is: 600 millimeters is equivalent to 6 decimeters.[1]

Conversion formula
How to convert 600 millimeters to decimeters?

We know (by definition) that: 1 mm = 0.01 dm.

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

1 mm / 600 mm = 0.01 dm / x dm

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

x dm = (600 mm / 1 mm) * 0.01 dm → x dm = 6.0 dm

Conclusion:

600 mm = 6.0 dm

Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.166666666666667 times 600 millimeters.

It can also be expressed as: 600 millimeters is equal to 1 / 0.166666666666667 decimeters.

Approximation

An approximate numerical result would be: six hundred millimeters is about zero decimeters, or alternatively, a decimeter is about zero point one seven times six hundred millimeters.
