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 463 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 463 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

463 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 463 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0463 km

The final result is:

463 dm → 0.0463 km

We conclude that 463 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0463 kilometers:

463 decimeters = 0.0463 kilometers

Alternative conversion
