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 23.7 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 23.7 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

23.7 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 23.7 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 72.2376 dm

The final result is:

23.7 ft → 72.2376 dm

We conclude that 23.7 feet is equivalent to 72.2376 decimeters:

23.7 feet = 72.2376 decimeters

Alternative conversion
