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 710 millimeters into decimeters we have to multiply 710 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

710 mm → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 710 mm × 0.01 dm

L_(dm) = 7.1 dm

The final result is:

710 mm → 7.1 dm

We conclude that 710 millimeters is equivalent to 7.1 decimeters:

710 millimeters = 7.1 decimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 0.14084507042254 × 710 millimeters.

Another way is saying that 710 millimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.14084507042254 decimeters.

Approximate result

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

710 mm ≅ 7.1 dm

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