1 mm = 0.01 dm
1 Millimeter (mm) = 0.01 Decimeter (dm).
If you want to reverse convert, use Decimeter → Millimeter. 1 dm = 100 mm. You can also explore the full Length converter page for more cross conversions.
Conversion formula
Millimeter to Decimeter formula: value in dm = value in mm × 0.01.
Decimeter to Millimeter formula: value in mm = value in dm × 100.
How to convert Millimeter to Decimeter
To convert Millimeter to Decimeter, multiply the value in mm by 0.01. This gives the result in dm.
For example, 1 mm = 0.01 dm and 10 mm = 0.1 dm.
What is Millimeter?
Millimeter (mm): One thousandth of a metre. Screw diameters, sheet thicknesses and small dimensions on technical drawings commonly use this finer scale. 1 mm = 0.1 cm = 0.001 m.
What is Decimeter?
Decimeter (dm): One tenth of a metre. It bridges centimetres and metres in school measurements and appears in volume calculations using cubic decimetres. 1 dm = 10 cm = 0.1 m.
FAQ
