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 1708 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 1708 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

1708 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 1708 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 5205.984 dm

The final result is:

1708 ft → 5205.984 dm

We conclude that 1708 feet is equivalent to 5205.984 decimeters:
