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 5500 feet into decimeters we have to multiply 5500 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
5500 ft → L(dm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in decimeters:
L(dm) = 5500 ft × 3.048 dm
L(dm) = 16764 dm
The final result is:
5500 ft → 16764 dm
We conclude that 5500 feet is equivalent to 16764 decimeters:
5500 feet = 16764 decimeters
