Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to yards is 0.10936132983377, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.10936132983377 yards:

1 dm = 0.10936132983377 yd

To convert 15 decimeters into yards we have to multiply 15 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to yards. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 0.10936132983377 yd

15 dm → L_(yd)

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

L_(yd) = 15 dm × 0.10936132983377 yd

L_(yd) = 1.6404199475066 yd

The final result is:

15 dm → 1.6404199475066 yd

We conclude that 15 decimeters is equivalent to 1.6404199475066 yards:

15 decimeters = 1.6404199475066 yards

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 yard is equal to 0.6096 × 15 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 15 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.6096 yards.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifteen decimeters is approximately one point six four yards:

15 dm ≅ 1.64 yd

An alternative is also that one yard is approximately zero point six one times fifteen decimeters.
