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 4438 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 4438 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

4438 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 4438 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.4438 km

The final result is:

4438 dm → 0.4438 km

We conclude that 4438 decimeters is equivalent to 0.4438 kilometers:

4438 decimeters = 0.4438 kilometers
