1
Consider that a luxury sports car can travel 300 miles on a full tank of gas. Convert this distance from miles to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in miles is:
Length(Miles) = 300
Formula:
The formula to convert length from miles to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Miles) / 0.006213712
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Miles) = 300 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 300 / 0.006213712
Length(Dekameters) = 48280.3194
Final Answer:
Therefore, 300 mi is equal to 48280.3194 dam.

Miles
A mile (symbol: mi or m) is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom. One mile is equal to 1.60934 kilometers.
The mile originated from the Roman mile, which was 1,000 paces. The current definition of a mile is based on the international agreement and equals exactly 1,609.344 meters.
Miles are mainly used to measure distances in the United States and the United Kingdom, especially for road systems. While most of the world uses kilometers, the mile remains prevalent in these countries.
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.
