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 106 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 106 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

106 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 106 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0106 km

The final result is:

106 dm → 0.0106 km

We conclude that 106 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0106 kilometers:

106 decimeters = 0.0106 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 94.339622641509 × 106 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 106 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 94.339622641509 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

106 dm ≅ 0.011 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately ninety-four point three four times one hundred six decimeters.
