Conversion Formulas

To convert from decimeters to millimeters, you simply multiply the number of decimeters by 100.

  • 1 dm = 100 mm
  • x dm = x * 100 mm

To convert from millimeters to decimeters, you divide the number of millimeters by 100.

  • 1 mm = 0.01 dm
  • x mm = x * 0.01 dm

Examples

  • 8 dm = 8 * 100 = 800 mm
  • 16 mm = 16 * 0.01 = 0.16 dm
  • 10 dm = 10 * 100 = 1000 mm
  • 8 mm = 8 * 0.01 = 0.08 dm
