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 5395 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 5395 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

5395 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5395 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.5395 km

The final result is:

5395 dm → 0.5395 km

We conclude that 5395 decimeters is equivalent to 0.5395 kilometers:
