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 342 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 342 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

342 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 342 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 1042.416 dm

The final result is:

342 ft → 1042.416 dm

We conclude that 342 feet is equivalent to 1042.416 decimeters:
