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 1577 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 1577 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

1577 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1577 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.1577 km

The final result is:

1577 dm → 0.1577 km

We conclude that 1577 decimeters is equivalent to 0.1577 kilometers:

1577 decimeters = 0.1577 kilometers
