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 1388 meters into decimeters we have to multiply 1388 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
1388 m → L(dm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in decimeters:
L(dm) = 1388 m × 10 dm
L(dm) = 13880 dm
The final result is:
1388 m → 13880 dm
We conclude that 1388 meters is equivalent to 13880 decimeters:
1388 meters = 13880 decimeters
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 7.2046109510086E-5 × 1388 meters.
