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 5362 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 5362 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

5362 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5362 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.5362 km

The final result is:

5362 dm → 0.5362 km

We conclude that 5362 decimeters is equivalent to 0.5362 kilometers:

5362 decimeters = 0.5362 kilometers
