What is the Formula to convert Kilometers to Dekameters?

The formula to convert given length from Kilometers to Dekameters is:

Length(Dekameters) = Length(Kilometers) × 100

Substitute the given value of length in kilometers, i.e., Length(Kilometers) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in dekameters, i.e., Length(Dekameters).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a high-end electric car has a maximum range of 400 kilometers on a single charge.
Convert this range from kilometers to Dekameters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in kilometers is:

Length(Kilometers) = 400

Formula:

The formula to convert length from kilometers to dekameters is:

Length(Dekameters) = Length(Kilometers) × 100

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Kilometers) = 400 in the above formula.

Length(Dekameters) = 400 × 100

Length(Dekameters) = 40000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 400 km is equal to 40000 dam.

The length is 40000 dam, in dekameters.

2

Consider that a private helicopter has a flight range of 150 kilometers.
Convert this range from kilometers to Dekameters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in kilometers is:

Length(Kilometers) = 150

Formula:

The formula to convert length from kilometers to dekameters is:

Length(Dekameters) = Length(Kilometers) × 100

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Kilometers) = 150 in the above formula.

Length(Dekameters) = 150 × 100

Length(Dekameters) = 15000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 150 km is equal to 15000 dam.

The length is 15000 dam, in dekameters.

Kilometers

A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.

The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.

Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.

Dekameters

A dekameter (dam) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One dekameter is equivalent to 10 meters or approximately 32.808 feet.

The dekameter is defined as ten meters, providing a convenient measurement for moderately large distances.

Dekameters are used in various fields to measure length and distance where a scale between meters and hectometers is appropriate. They are less commonly used than other metric units but can be useful in certain applications, such as land measurement and environmental science.
