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 1555 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1555 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

1555 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1555 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.1555 km

The final result is:

1555 dm → 0.1555 km

We conclude that 1555 decimeters is equivalent to 0.1555 kilometers:

1555 decimeters = 0.1555 kilometers
