Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to meters is 0.1, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.1 meters:

1 dm = 0.1 m

To convert 1001 decimeters into meters we have to multiply 1001 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 0.1 m

1001 dm → L(m)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:

L(m) = 1001 dm × 0.1 m

L(m) = 100.1 m

The final result is:

1001 dm → 100.1 m

We conclude that 1001 decimeters is equivalent to 100.1 meters:

1001 decimeters = 100.1 meters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 0.00999000999001 × 1001 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 1001 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00999000999001 meters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand one decimeters is approximately one hundred point one meters:

1001 dm ≅ 100.1 m

An alternative is also that one meter is approximately zero point zero one times one thousand one decimeters.
