Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to centimeters is 10, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters:

1 dm = 10 cm

To convert 11 decimeters into centimeters we have to multiply 11 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 10 cm

11 dm → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 11 dm × 10 cm

L_(cm) = 110 cm

The final result is:

11 dm → 110 cm

We conclude that 11 decimeters is equivalent to 110 centimeters:

11 decimeters = 110 centimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 centimeter is equal to 0.0090909090909091 × 11 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 11 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0090909090909091 centimeters.

Approximate result

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

11 dm ≅ 110 cm

An alternative is also that one centimeter is approximately zero point zero zero nine times eleven decimeters.
