Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to centimeters is 10, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters:

1 dm = 10 cm

To convert 601 decimeters into centimeters we have to multiply 601 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 10 cm

601 dm → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 601 dm × 10 cm

L_(cm) = 6010 cm

The final result is:

601 dm → 6010 cm

We conclude that 601 decimeters is equivalent to 6010 centimeters:

601 decimeters = 6010 centimeters
