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 8625 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 8625 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

8625 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 8625 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.8625 km

The final result is:

8625 dm → 0.8625 km

We conclude that 8625 decimeters is equivalent to 0.8625 kilometers:

8625 decimeters = 0.8625 kilometers
