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 729 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 729 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

729 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 729 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0729 km

The final result is:

729 dm → 0.0729 km

We conclude that 729 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0729 kilometers:

729 decimeters = 0.0729 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 13.717421124829 × 729 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 729 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 13.717421124829 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

729 dm ≅ 0.073 km

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