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 830 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 830 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

830 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 830 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.083 km

The final result is:

830 dm → 0.083 km

We conclude that 830 decimeters is equivalent to 0.083 kilometers:

830 decimeters = 0.083 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 12.048192771084 × 830 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 830 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 12.048192771084 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

830 dm ≅ 0.083 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately twelve point zero four eight times eight hundred thirty decimeters.
