The conversion factor from decimeters to yards is 0.10936132983377, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.10936132983377 yards:

1 dm = 0.10936132983377 yd

To convert 48.7 decimeters into yards we have to multiply 48.7 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to yards. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 0.10936132983377 yd

48.7 dm → L(yd)

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

L(yd) = 48.7 dm × 0.10936132983377 yd

L(yd) = 5.3258967629046 yd

The final result is:

48.7 dm → 5.3258967629046 yd
