Conversion formula

The conversion factor from centimeters to decimeters is 0.1, which means that 1 centimeter is equal to 0.1 decimeters:

1 cm = 0.1 dm

To convert 8009 centimeters into decimeters we have to multiply 8009 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from centimeters to decimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 cm → 0.1 dm

8009 cm → L_(dm)

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

L_(dm) = 8009 cm × 0.1 dm

L_(dm) = 800.9 dm

The final result is:

8009 cm → 800.9 dm

We conclude that 8009 centimeters is equivalent to 800.9 decimeters:

8009 centimeters = 800.9 decimeters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 decimeter is equal to 0.0012485953302535 × 8009 centimeters.

Another way is saying that 8009 centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012485953302535 decimeters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight thousand nine centimeters is approximately eight hundred point nine decimeters:

8009 cm ≅ 800.9 dm

An alternative is also that one decimeter is approximately zero point zero zero one times eight thousand nine centimeters.
