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 3397 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3397 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

3397 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3397 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.3397 km

The final result is:

3397 dm → 0.3397 km

We conclude that 3397 decimeters is equivalent to 0.3397 kilometers:

3397 decimeters = 0.3397 kilometers
