Conversion formula

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 5005 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 5005 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

5005 ft → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 5005 ft × 3.048 dm

L_(dm) = 15255.24 dm

The final result is:

5005 ft → 15255.24 dm

We conclude that 5005 feet is equivalent to 15255.24 decimeters:

5005 feet = 15255.24 decimeters
