The conversion factor from inches to decimeters is 0.254, which means that 1 inch is equal to 0.254 decimeters:

1 in = 0.254 dm

To convert 80.8 inches into decimeters we have to multiply 80.8 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from inches to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 in → 0.254 dm

80.8 in → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 80.8 in × 0.254 dm

L_(dm) = 20.5232 dm

The final result is:

80.8 in → 20.5232 dm

We conclude that 80.8 inches is equivalent to 20.5232 decimeters:
