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 1010 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1010 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

1010 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1010 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.101 km

The final result is:

1010 dm → 0.101 km

We conclude that 1010 decimeters is equivalent to 0.101 kilometers:

1010 decimeters = 0.101 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 9.9009900990099 × 1010 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 1010 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 9.9009900990099 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

1010 dm ≅ 0.101 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately nine point nine zero one times one thousand ten decimeters.
