Conversion formula
How to convert 2 decimeters to millimeters?

We know (by definition) that: 1⁢dm = 100⁢mm

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

1 ⁢ dm 2 ⁢ dm = 100 ⁢ mm x ⁢ mm

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

x ⁢ mm = 2 ⁢ dm 1 ⁢ dm * 100 ⁢ mm → x ⁢ mm = 200 ⁢ mm

Conclusion: 2 ⁢ dm = 200 ⁢ mm

2 decimeters is equivalent to 200 millimeters

Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 millimeter is equal to 0.005 times 2 decimeters.

It can also be expressed as: 2 decimeters is equal to 1 0.005 millimeters.
