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 164 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 164 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

164 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 164 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0164 km

The final result is:

164 dm → 0.0164 km

We conclude that 164 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0164 kilometers:

164 decimeters = 0.0164 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 60.975609756098 × 164 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 164 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 60.975609756098 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

164 dm ≅ 0.016 km

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