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 8009 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 8009 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

8009 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 8009 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.8009 km

The final result is:

8009 dm → 0.8009 km

We conclude that 8009 decimeters is equivalent to 0.8009 kilometers:

8009 decimeters = 0.8009 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 1.2485953302535 × 8009 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 8009 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 1.2485953302535 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

8009 dm ≅ 0.801 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately one point two four nine times eight thousand nine decimeters.
