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 6993 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 6993 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

6993 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 6993 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.6993 km

The final result is:

6993 dm → 0.6993 km

We conclude that 6993 decimeters is equivalent to 0.6993 kilometers:
