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 723 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 723 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

723 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 723 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0723 km

The final result is:

723 dm → 0.0723 km

We conclude that 723 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0723 kilometers:

723 decimeters = 0.0723 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 13.831258644537 × 723 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 723 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 13.831258644537 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred twenty-three decimeters is approximately zero point zero seven two kilometers:

723 dm ≅ 0.072 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately thirteen point eight three one times seven hundred twenty-three decimeters.
