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 155 decimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 155 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

155 dm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 155 dm × 0.0001 km

L_(km) = 0.0155 km

The final result is:

155 dm → 0.0155 km

We conclude that 155 decimeters is equivalent to 0.0155 kilometers:

155 decimeters = 0.0155 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 64.516129032258 × 155 decimeters.

Another way is saying that 155 decimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 64.516129032258 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

155 dm ≅ 0.016 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately sixty-four point five one six times one hundred fifty-five decimeters.
