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 9867 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 9867 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

9867 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 9867 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.9867 km

The final result is:

9867 dm → 0.9867 km

We conclude that 9867 decimeters is equivalent to 0.9867 kilometers:
