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 9998 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 9998 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

9998 dm → L(km)

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

L(km) = 9998 dm × 0.0001 km

L(km) = 0.9998 km

The final result is:

9998 dm → 0.9998 km

We conclude that 9998 decimeters is equivalent to 0.9998 kilometers:

9998 decimeters = 0.9998 kilometers
