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 829 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 829 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

829 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 829 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0829 km

The final result is:

829 dm → 0.0829 km

We conclude that 829 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0829 kilometers:

829 decimeters = 0.0829 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 12.062726176116 × 829 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 829 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 12.062726176116 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

829 dm ≅ 0.083 km

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