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 167 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 167 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

167 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 167 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0167 km

The final result is:

167 dm → 0.0167 km

We conclude that 167 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0167 kilometers:

167 decimeters = 0.0167 kilometers
