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 1571 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1571 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

1571 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1571 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.1571 km

The final result is:

1571 dm → 0.1571 km

We conclude that 1571 decimeters is equivalent to 0.1571 kilometers:

1571 decimeters = 0.1571 kilometers
