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 1320 decimeters into meters we have to multiply 1320 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

1320 dm → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 1320 dm × 0.1 m

L_(m) = 132 m

The final result is:

1320 dm → 132 m

We conclude that 1320 decimeters is equivalent to 132 meters:

1320 decimeters = 132 meters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 0.0075757575757576 × 1320 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 1320 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0075757575757576 meters.

Approximate result

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

1320 dm ≅ 132 m

An alternative is also that one meter is approximately zero point zero zero eight times one thousand three hundred twenty decimeters.
