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 1498 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1498 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

1498 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1498 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.1498 km

The final result is:

1498 dm → 0.1498 km

We conclude that 1498 decimeters is equivalent to 0.1498 kilometers:

1498 decimeters = 0.1498 kilometers
