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 268 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 268 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

268 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 268 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 816.864 dm

The final result is:

268 ft → 816.864 dm

We conclude that 268 feet is equivalent to 816.864 decimeters:
