Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet to decimeters is 3.048, which means that 1 foot is equal to 3.048 decimeters:

1 ft = 3.048 dm

To convert 1500 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 1500 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from feet to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft → 3.048 dm

1500 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 1500 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 4572 dm

The final result is:

1500 ft → 4572 dm

We conclude that 1500 feet is equivalent to 4572 decimeters:

1500 feet = 4572 decimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 0.00021872265966754 × 1500 feet.

Another way is saying that 1500 feet is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00021872265966754 decimeters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand five hundred feet is approximately four thousand five hundred seventy-two decimeters:

1500 ft ≅ 4572 dm

An alternative is also that one decimeter is approximately zero times one thousand five hundred feet.
