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 625 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 625 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

625 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 625 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0625 km

The final result is:

625 dm → 0.0625 km

We conclude that 625 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0625 kilometers:

625 decimeters = 0.0625 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 16 × 625 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 625 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 16 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six hundred twenty-five decimeters is approximately zero point zero six three kilometers:

625 dm ≅ 0.063 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately sixteen times six hundred twenty-five decimeters.
