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 9977 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 9977 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

9977 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 9977 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.9977 km

The final result is:

9977 dm → 0.9977 km

We conclude that 9977 decimeters is equivalent to 0.9977 kilometers:

9977 decimeters = 0.9977 kilometers
