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 5526 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 5526 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

5526 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5526 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.5526 km

The final result is:

5526 dm → 0.5526 km

We conclude that 5526 decimeters is equivalent to 0.5526 kilometers:

5526 decimeters = 0.5526 kilometers
