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 1299 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1299 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

1299 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1299 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.1299 km

The final result is:

1299 dm → 0.1299 km

We conclude that 1299 decimeters is equivalent to 0.1299 kilometers:

1299 decimeters = 0.1299 kilometers
