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 3471 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3471 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

3471 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3471 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.3471 km

The final result is:

3471 dm → 0.3471 km

We conclude that 3471 decimeters is equivalent to 0.3471 kilometers:

3471 decimeters = 0.3471 kilometers
