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 5834 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 5834 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

5834 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5834 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.5834 km

The final result is:

5834 dm → 0.5834 km

We conclude that 5834 decimeters is equivalent to 0.5834 kilometers:

5834 decimeters = 0.5834 kilometers
