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 8137 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 8137 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

8137 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 8137 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.8137 km

The final result is:

8137 dm → 0.8137 km

We conclude that 8137 decimeters is equivalent to 0.8137 kilometers:

8137 decimeters = 0.8137 kilometers
