Examples
1
Consider that a high-end smartphone has a screen size of 15 centimeters. Convert this screen size from centimeters to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in centimeters is:
Length(Centimeters) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert length from centimeters to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Centimeters) / 1000
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Centimeters) = 15 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 15 / 1000
Length(Dekameters) = 0.015
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 cm is equal to 0.015 dam.
The length is 0.015 dam, in dekameters.
2
Consider that a luxury handbag measures 30 centimeters in width. Convert this width from centimeters to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in centimeters is:
Length(Centimeters) = 30
Formula:
The formula to convert length from centimeters to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Centimeters) / 1000
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Centimeters) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 30 / 1000
Length(Dekameters) = 0.03
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 cm is equal to 0.03 dam.
The length is 0.03 dam, in dekameters.

Centimeters
A centimeter (cm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One centimeter is equivalent to 0.01 meters or approximately 0.3937 inches.
The centimeter is defined as one-hundredth of a meter, making it a convenient measurement for smaller lengths.
Centimeters are used worldwide to measure length and distance in various fields, including science, engineering, and everyday life. They are commonly used in everyday measurements, such as height, width, and depth of objects, as well as in educational settings.
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.
