Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to centimeters is 10, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters:

1 dm = 10 cm

To convert 13.3 decimeters into centimeters we have to multiply 13.3 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 10 cm

13.3 dm → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 13.3 dm × 10 cm

L_(cm) = 133 cm

The final result is:

13.3 dm → 133 cm

We conclude that 13.3 decimeters is equivalent to 133 centimeters:

13.3 decimeters = 133 centimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 centimeter is equal to 0.0075187969924812 × 13.3 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 13.3 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0075187969924812 centimeters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that thirteen point three decimeters is approximately one hundred thirty-three centimeters:

13.3 dm ≅ 133 cm

An alternative is also that one centimeter is approximately zero point zero zero eight times thirteen point three decimeters.
