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 3479 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3479 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

3479 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3479 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.3479 km

The final result is:

3479 dm → 0.3479 km

We conclude that 3479 decimeters is equivalent to 0.3479 kilometers:

3479 decimeters = 0.3479 kilometers
