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 836 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 836 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

836 dm → L(km)

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

L(km) = 836 dm × 0.0001 km

L(km) = 0.0836 km

The final result is:

836 dm → 0.0836 km

We conclude that 836 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0836 kilometers:

836 decimeters = 0.0836 kilometers
