Conversion formula
The conversion factor from centimeters to decimeters is 0.1, which means that 1 centimeter is equal to 0.1 decimeters:
1 cm = 0.1 dm
To convert 3800 centimeters into decimeters we have to multiply 3800 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from centimeters to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 cm → 0.1 dm
3800 cm → L(dm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in decimeters:
L(dm) = 3800 cm × 0.1 dm
L(dm) = 380 dm
The final result is:
3800 cm → 380 dm
We conclude that 3800 centimeters is equivalent to 380 decimeters:
3800 centimeters = 380 decimeters
Alternative conversion
