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 96 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 96 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

96 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 96 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0096 km

The final result is:

96 dm → 0.0096 km

We conclude that 96 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0096 kilometers:

96 decimeters = 0.0096 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 104.16666666667 × 96 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 96 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 104.16666666667 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that ninety-six decimeters is approximately zero point zero one kilometers:

96 dm ≅ 0.01 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately one hundred four point one six seven times ninety-six decimeters.
