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 233 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 233 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

233 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 233 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0233 km

The final result is:

233 dm → 0.0233 km

We conclude that 233 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0233 kilometers:

233 decimeters = 0.0233 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 42.918454935622 × 233 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 233 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 42.918454935622 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

233 dm ≅ 0.023 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately forty-two point nine one eight times two hundred thirty-three decimeters.
