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 3458 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3458 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

3458 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3458 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.3458 km

The final result is:

3458 dm → 0.3458 km

We conclude that 3458 decimeters is equivalent to 0.3458 kilometers:
