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 220 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 220 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

220 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 220 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.022 km

The final result is:

220 dm → 0.022 km

We conclude that 220 decimeters is equivalent to 0.022 kilometers:

220 decimeters = 0.022 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 45.454545454545 × 220 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 220 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 45.454545454545 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two hundred twenty decimeters is approximately zero point zero two two kilometers:

220 dm ≅ 0.022 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately forty-five point four five five times two hundred twenty decimeters.
