Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to feet is 0.32808398950131, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.32808398950131 feet:

1 dm = 0.32808398950131 ft

To convert 2.8 decimeters into feet we have to multiply 2.8 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to feet. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 0.32808398950131 ft

2.8 dm → L_(ft)

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

L_(ft) = 2.8 dm × 0.32808398950131 ft

L_(ft) = 0.91863517060367 ft

The final result is:

2.8 dm → 0.91863517060367 ft

We conclude that 2.8 decimeters is equivalent to 0.91863517060367 feet:
