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 1004.9 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1004.9 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

1004.9 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1004.9 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.10049 km

The final result is:

1004.9 dm → 0.10049 km

We conclude that 1004.9 decimeters is equivalent to 0.10049 kilometers:

1004.9 decimeters = 0.10049 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 9.9512389292467 × 1004.9 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 1004.9 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 9.9512389292467 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

1004.9 dm ≅ 0.1 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately nine point nine five one times one thousand four point nine decimeters.
