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 8564 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 8564 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

8564 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 8564 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.8564 km

The final result is:

8564 dm → 0.8564 km

We conclude that 8564 decimeters is equivalent to 0.8564 kilometers:

8564 decimeters = 0.8564 kilometers
