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 6379 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 6379 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

6379 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 6379 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.6379 km

The final result is:

6379 dm → 0.6379 km

We conclude that 6379 decimeters is equivalent to 0.6379 kilometers:

6379 decimeters = 0.6379 kilometers
