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 5264 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 5264 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

5264 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5264 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.5264 km

The final result is:

5264 dm → 0.5264 km

We conclude that 5264 decimeters is equivalent to 0.5264 kilometers:

5264 decimeters = 0.5264 kilometers
