To find the value in decimeter that corresponds to a value in decimeters, multiply the value in dms by 1 (the conversion factor). Here is the Conversion formula
Value in decimeters = value in dms × 1
Let's say that you have 1 dm and you want to convert it to decimeters. By using the conversion formula provided above, you get:
Value in decimeter = 1 × 1 = 1 decimeter
This conversion formula works because one decimeter is equal to 1 dm.
To convert a different value in dms, simply replace the value in the formula above with the new value.
What is the Relationship Between Dms and Decimeters
The Exact Relationship is Defined as follows:
1 decimeter = 1 dms
This means that to convert a measurement from dms to decimeters, you multiply the value in dms by 1.
Using The Calculator
Here is how to switch from dms to decimeters:
- Determine the measurement in dms that you are working with: For this example, let's use
1 dm
. - Apply the formula: Multiply the value in dms by 1:
Value in decimeters = 1 × 1
- Perform the calculation: Youmay use want to use a calculator or do the math:
Value in decimeters = 1 decimeter
Quick Tips For Mental Math
If you don't have a calculator handy, or you want to do a quick mental estimate, you can approximate:
- Use 1 instead of 1 for a rough estimate.
- For example:
- 1 dm ≈ 1 decimeter, (1, exactly)
- 2 dms ≈ 2 decimeters, (2, exactly)
- 3 dms ≈ 3 decimeters, (3, exactly)
Conclusion
You've learned how to convert dms to decimeters and vice versa! Use the formula decimeters = dms ÷ 1
for accurate results, or approximate using quick mental math for a rough estimate.
