Square Decimeter to Square Kilometer converter (dm2 to km2)

Conversion Formula

1 dm2 = 1.0E-8 km2

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Square Decimeter = 0.01 m²
   1 Square Kilometer = 1000000 m²
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 dm2 = (0.01 m²) / (1000000 m²/km2) = 1.0E-8 km2
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in dm2 by 1.0E-8 to get the equivalent in km2

Example Conversion

Convert 5 dm2 to km2:

5 dm2 × 1.0E-8 = 5.0E-8 km2
