Conversion formula
The conversion factor from decimeters to yards is 0.10936132983377, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.10936132983377 yards:
1 dm = 0.10936132983377 yd
To convert 4.2 decimeters into yards we have to multiply 4.2 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to yards. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 dm → 0.10936132983377 yd
4.2 dm → L(yd)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in yards:
L(yd) = 4.2 dm × 0.10936132983377 yd
L(yd) = 0.45931758530184 yd
The final result is:
4.2 dm → 0.45931758530184 yd
We conclude that 4.2 decimeters is equivalent to 0.45931758530184 yards:
4.2 decimeters = 0.45931758530184 yards
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 yard is equal to 2.1771428571429 × 4.2 decimeters.
Another way is saying that 4.2 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 2.1771428571429 yards.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four point two decimeters is approximately zero point four five nine yards:
4.2 dm ≅ 0.459 yd
An alternative is also that one yard is approximately two point one seven seven times four point two decimeters.
