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 743 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 743 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

743 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 743 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0743 km

The final result is:

743 dm → 0.0743 km

We conclude that 743 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0743 kilometers:

743 decimeters = 0.0743 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 13.458950201884 × 743 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 743 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 13.458950201884 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

743 dm ≅ 0.074 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately thirteen point four five nine times seven hundred forty-three decimeters.
