Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to miles is 6.2137119223733E-5, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 6.2137119223733E-5 miles:

1 dm = 6.2137119223733E-5 mi

To convert 1002 decimeters into miles we have to multiply 1002 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to miles. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 6.2137119223733E-5 mi

1002 dm → L_(mi)

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

L_(mi) = 1002 dm × 6.2137119223733E-5 mi

L_(mi) = 0.062261393462181 mi

The final result is:

1002 dm → 0.062261393462181 mi

We conclude that 1002 decimeters is equivalent to 0.062261393462181 miles:
