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 150 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 150 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

150 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 150 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.015 km

The final result is:

150 dm → 0.015 km

We conclude that 150 decimeters is equivalent to 0.015 kilometers:

150 decimeters = 0.015 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 66.666666666667 × 150 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 150 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 66.666666666667 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

150 dm ≅ 0.015 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately sixty-six point six six seven times one hundred fifty decimeters.
