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 7145 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 7145 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

7145 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 7145 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.7145 km

The final result is:

7145 dm → 0.7145 km

We conclude that 7145 decimeters is equivalent to 0.7145 kilometers:

7145 decimeters = 0.7145 kilometers
