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 650 decimeters into centimeters we have to multiply 650 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

650 dm → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 650 dm × 10 cm

L_(cm) = 6500 cm

The final result is:

650 dm → 6500 cm

We conclude that 650 decimeters is equivalent to 6500 centimeters:

650 decimeters = 6500 centimeters
