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 8298 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 8298 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

8298 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 8298 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.8298 km

The final result is:

8298 dm → 0.8298 km

We conclude that 8298 decimeters is equivalent to 0.8298 kilometers:
