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 5746 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 5746 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

5746 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5746 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.5746 km

The final result is:

5746 dm → 0.5746 km

We conclude that 5746 decimeters is equivalent to 0.5746 kilometers:

5746 decimeters = 0.5746 kilometers
