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 4740 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 4740 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

4740 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 4740 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 14447.52 dm

The final result is:

4740 ft → 14447.52 dm

We conclude that 4740 feet is equivalent to 14447.52 decimeters:
