Conversion formula
The conversion factor from decimeters to feet is 0.32808398950131, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.32808398950131 feet:
1 dm = 0.32808398950131 ft
To convert 0.5 decimeters into feet we have to multiply 0.5 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to feet. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 dm → 0.32808398950131 ft
0.5 dm → L(ft)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in feet:
L(ft) = 0.5 dm × 0.32808398950131 ft
L(ft) = 0.16404199475066 ft
The final result is:
0.5 dm → 0.16404199475066 ft
We conclude that 0.5 decimeters is equivalent to 0.16404199475066 feet:
