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 4748 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 4748 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

4748 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 4748 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.4748 km

The final result is:

4748 dm → 0.4748 km

We conclude that 4748 decimeters is equivalent to 0.4748 kilometers:

4748 decimeters = 0.4748 kilometers
