Conversion formula
How to convert 7 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 / 7 mm = 0.01 dm / x dm

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

x dm = (7 mm / 1 mm) * 0.01 dm → x dm = 0.07 dm

Conclusion:

7 mm = 0.07 dm

Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 decimeter is equal to 14.2857142857143 times 7 millimeters.

It can also be expressed as: 7 millimeters is equal to 1 / 14.2857142857143 decimeters.

Approximation

An approximate numerical result would be: seven millimeters is about zero decimeters, or alternatively, a decimeter is about fourteen point two eight times seven millimeters.
