The decimeters to centimeters converter is a simple tool to convert length from dm to cm. It works by taking the input value in decimeters and applying the conversion factor of 10 centimeters per decimeter. The converter calculates the equivalent length in centimeters and displays the result.
Below, you will find information on how many centimeters in a decimeter and how to easily convert dm to cm and vice versa.
How many centimeters are in a decimeter?
1 Decimeter (dm) is equal to 10 centimeters (cm). To convert decimeters to centimeters, multiply the decimeter value by 10.
For example, to convert 2 decimeters to centimeters, you can use the following formula:
cm = dm * 10
multiply 2 by 10:
cm = 2 * 10 = 20 cm
Therefore, 2 decimeters equal to 20 centimeters.
Using the simple formula below, you can easily convert decimeters to centimeters.
dm to cm conversion formula:
cm = dm * 10
How to convert centimeters to decimeters?
1 Centimeter (cm) is equal to 0.1 decimeter (dm). To convert centimeters to decimeters, multiply the centimeter value by 0.1 or divide by 10.
For example, to convert 100 centimeters to decimeters, you can use the following formula:
dm = cm * 0.1
multiply 100 by 0.1:
dm = 100 * 0.1 = 10 dm
Therefore, 100 centimeters equal to 10 decimeters.
Using the simple formula below, you can easily convert centimeters to decimeters.
cm to dm conversion formula:
dm = cm * 0.1
dm = cm / 10
