Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters to decimeters is 10, which means that 1 meter is equal to 10 decimeters:

1 m = 10 dm

To convert 123.8 meters into decimeters we have to multiply 123.8 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from meters to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m → 10 dm

123.8 m → L(dm)

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

L(dm) = 123.8 m × 10 dm

L(dm) = 1238 dm

The final result is:

123.8 m → 1238 dm

We conclude that 123.8 meters is equivalent to 1238 decimeters:

123.8 meters = 1238 decimeters
