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 6370 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 6370 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

6370 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 6370 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.637 km

The final result is:

6370 dm → 0.637 km

We conclude that 6370 decimeters is equivalent to 0.637 kilometers:

6370 decimeters = 0.637 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 1.5698587127159 × 6370 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 6370 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.5698587127159 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

6370 dm ≅ 0.637 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately one point five seven times six thousand three hundred seventy decimeters.
