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 4646 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 4646 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

4646 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 4646 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.4646 km

The final result is:

4646 dm → 0.4646 km

We conclude that 4646 decimeters is equivalent to 0.4646 kilometers:

4646 decimeters = 0.4646 kilometers
