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 3678 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3678 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

3678 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3678 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.3678 km

The final result is:

3678 dm → 0.3678 km

We conclude that 3678 decimeters is equivalent to 0.3678 kilometers:

3678 decimeters = 0.3678 kilometers
