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 2697 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 2697 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

2697 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 2697 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.2697 km

The final result is:

2697 dm → 0.2697 km

We conclude that 2697 decimeters is equivalent to 0.2697 kilometers:

2697 decimeters = 0.2697 kilometers
