Conversion formula

The conversion factor from millimeters to decimeters is 0.01, which means that 1 millimeter is equal to 0.01 decimeters:

1 mm = 0.01 dm

To convert 6.7 millimeters into decimeters we have to multiply 6.7 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from millimeters to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mm → 0.01 dm

6.7 mm → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 6.7 mm × 0.01 dm

L_(dm) = 0.067 dm

The final result is:

6.7 mm → 0.067 dm

We conclude that 6.7 millimeters is equivalent to 0.067 decimeters:

6.7 millimeters = 0.067 decimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 14.925373134328 × 6.7 millimeters.

Another way is saying that 6.7 millimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 14.925373134328 decimeters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six point seven millimeters is approximately zero point zero six seven decimeters:

6.7 mm ≅ 0.067 dm

An alternative is also that one decimeter is approximately fourteen point nine two five times six point seven millimeters.
