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 3422 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3422 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

3422 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3422 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.3422 km

The final result is:

3422 dm → 0.3422 km

We conclude that 3422 decimeters is equivalent to 0.3422 kilometers:

3422 decimeters = 0.3422 kilometers
