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 577 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 577 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

577 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 577 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0577 km

The final result is:

577 dm → 0.0577 km

We conclude that 577 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0577 kilometers:

577 decimeters = 0.0577 kilometers

Alternative conversion
