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 2977 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 2977 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

2977 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 2977 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.2977 km

The final result is:

2977 dm → 0.2977 km

We conclude that 2977 decimeters is equivalent to 0.2977 kilometers:

2977 decimeters = 0.2977 kilometers
