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 7078 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 7078 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

7078 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 7078 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.7078 km

The final result is:

7078 dm → 0.7078 km

We conclude that 7078 decimeters is equivalent to 0.7078 kilometers:

7078 decimeters = 0.7078 kilometers
