8 kilometers in decimeters

Result

The conversion result is: 8 kilometers is equivalent to 80000 decimeters.^[1]

Conversion formula
How to convert 8 kilometers to decimeters?

We know (by definition) that: 1 km = 10000 dm.

We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of decimeters.

1 km / 8 km = 10000 dm / x dm

Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown x:

x dm = (8 km / 1 km) * 10000 dm → x dm = 80000 dm

Conclusion:

8 km = 80000 dm

Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 decimeter is equal to 1.25e-05 times 8 kilometers.

It can also be expressed as: 8 kilometers is equal to 1 / 1.25e-05 decimeters.

Approximation

An approximate numerical result would be: eight kilometers is about eighty thousand decimeters, or alternatively, a decimeter is about zero times eight kilometers.
