Conversion formula

The conversion factor from decimeters to kilometers is 0.0001, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.0001 kilometers:

1 dm = 0.0001 km

To convert 1.3 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1.3 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 0.0001 km

1.3 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1.3 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.00013 km

The final result is:

1.3 dm → 0.00013 km

We conclude that 1.3 decimeters is equivalent to 0.00013 kilometers:

1.3 decimeters = 0.00013 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 7692.3076923077 × 1.3 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 1.3 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 7692.3076923077 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one point three decimeters is approximately zero kilometers:

1.3 dm ≅ 0 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately seven thousand six hundred ninety-two point three zero eight times one point three decimeters.
