Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to millimeters is 100, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 100 millimeters:

1 dm = 100 mm

To convert 3470 decimeters into millimeters we have to multiply 3470 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to millimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 100 mm

3470 dm → L_(mm)

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

L_(mm) = 3470 dm × 100 mm

L_(mm) = 347000 mm

The final result is:

3470 dm → 347000 mm

We conclude that 3470 decimeters is equivalent to 347000 millimeters:
