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 824 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 824 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

824 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 824 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0824 km

The final result is:

824 dm → 0.0824 km

We conclude that 824 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0824 kilometers:

824 decimeters = 0.0824 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 12.135922330097 × 824 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 824 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 12.135922330097 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

824 dm ≅ 0.082 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately twelve point one three six times eight hundred twenty-four decimeters.
