Conversion formula
How to convert 3 meters to decimeters?

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

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

1 m 3 m = 10 dm x dm

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

x dm = 3 m 1 m * 10 dm x dm = 30 dm

Conclusion: 3 m = 30 dm


3 meters is equivalent to 30 decimeters
