Examples
1
Consider that a land parcel is measured as 500 feet (US survey) in length. Convert this length from feet (US survey) to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in feet (us survey) is:
Length(Feet (US survey)) = 500
Formula:
The formula to convert length from feet (us survey) to dekameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Feet (US survey)) = 250 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 250 / 32.808333333
Length(Dekameters) = 7.62
Final Answer:
Therefore, 250 ft is equal to 7.62 dam.
The length is 7.62 dam, in dekameters.

Feet (US survey)
A foot (US survey) is a unit of length used in land surveying and mapping in the United States. One foot (US survey) is defined as exactly 1200/3937 meters, which is approximately 0.3048006096 meters or about 0.3048 meters.
The US survey foot is slightly different from the international foot, which is defined as exactly 0.3048 meters. The difference is due to historical measurement standards and is used in specific contexts such as land surveying and engineering in the United States.
US survey feet are used primarily in the United States for property measurement, land surveying, and mapping, ensuring consistency in measurements within these fields.
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.
