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 702 millimeters into decimeters we have to multiply 702 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

702 mm → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 702 mm × 0.01 dm

L_(dm) = 7.02 dm

The final result is:

702 mm → 7.02 dm

We conclude that 702 millimeters is equivalent to 7.02 decimeters:

702 millimeters = 7.02 decimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 0.14245014245014 × 702 millimeters.

Another way is saying that 702 millimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.14245014245014 decimeters.

Approximate result

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

702 mm ≅ 7.02 dm

An alternative is also that one decimeter is approximately zero point one four two times seven hundred two millimeters.
