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 3989 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3989 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

3989 dm → L(km)

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

L(km) = 3989 dm × 0.0001 km

L(km) = 0.3989 km

The final result is:

3989 dm → 0.3989 km
