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 1088 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1088 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

1088 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1088 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.1088 km

The final result is:

1088 dm → 0.1088 km

We conclude that 1088 decimeters is equivalent to 0.1088 kilometers:

1088 decimeters = 0.1088 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 9.1911764705882 × 1088 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 1088 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 9.1911764705882 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

1088 dm ≅ 0.109 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately nine point one nine one times one thousand eighty-eight decimeters.
