Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters to decimeters is 10, which means that 1 meter is equal to 10 decimeters:

1 m = 10 dm

To convert 704 meters into decimeters we have to multiply 704 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from meters to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m → 10 dm

704 m → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 704 m × 10 dm

L_(dm) = 7040 dm

The final result is:

704 m → 7040 dm

We conclude that 704 meters is equivalent to 7040 decimeters:

704 meters = 7040 decimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 0.00014204545454545 × 704 meters.

Another way is saying that 704 meters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00014204545454545 decimeters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred four meters is approximately seven thousand forty decimeters:

704 m ≅ 7040 dm

An alternative is also that one decimeter is approximately zero times seven hundred four meters.
