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 28.9 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 28.9 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

28.9 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 28.9 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 88.0872 dm

The final result is:

28.9 ft → 88.0872 dm

We conclude that 28.9 feet is equivalent to 88.0872 decimeters:

28.9 feet = 88.0872 decimeters
