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 4230 decimeters into millimeters we have to multiply 4230 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

4230 dm → L_(mm)

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

L_(mm) = 4230 dm × 100 mm

L_(mm) = 423000 mm

The final result is:

4230 dm → 423000 mm

We conclude that 4230 decimeters is equivalent to 423000 millimeters:

4230 decimeters = 423000 millimeters

Alternative conversion
