Conversion formula
The conversion factor from meters to decimeters is 10, which means that 1 meter is equal to 10 decimeters:
1 m = 10 dm
To convert 3000 meters into decimeters we have to multiply 3000 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from meters to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 m → 10 dm
3000 m → L(dm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in decimeters:
L(dm) = 3000 m × 10 dm
L(dm) = 30000 dm
The final result is:
3000 m → 30000 dm
We conclude that 3000 meters is equivalent to 30000 decimeters:
3000 meters = 30000 decimeters
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 3.3333333333333E-5 × 3000 meters.
Another way is saying that 3000 meters is equal to 1 ÷ 3.3333333333333E-5 decimeters.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three thousand meters is approximately thirty thousand decimeters:
3000 m ≅ 30000 dm
An alternative is also that one decimeter is approximately zero times three thousand meters.
