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 6429 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 6429 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

6429 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 6429 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.6429 km

The final result is:

6429 dm → 0.6429 km

We conclude that 6429 decimeters is equivalent to 0.6429 kilometers:

6429 decimeters = 0.6429 kilometers

Alternative conversion
