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 448.8 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 448.8 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

448.8 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 448.8 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.04488 km

The final result is:

448.8 dm → 0.04488 km

We conclude that 448.8 decimeters is equivalent to 0.04488 kilometers:

448.8 decimeters = 0.04488 kilometers
