Examples
1
Consider that the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is about 1.3 parsecs from Earth. Convert this distance from parsecs to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in parsecs is:
Length(Parsecs) = 1.3
Formula:
The formula to convert length from parsecs to dekameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Parsecs) = 50 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 50 × 3085677581914465
Length(Dekameters) = 154283879095723260
Final Answer:
Therefore, 50 pc is equal to 154283879095723260 dam.
The length is 154283879095723260 dam, in dekameters.

Parsecs
A parsec (symbol: pc) is a unit of length used in astronomy. One parsec is approximately 3.26 light-years or 3.086 × 10¹³ kilometers.
The term parsec comes from "parallax of one arcsecond." It is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
Parsecs are commonly used to measure large distances between astronomical objects outside our solar system, such as between stars or galaxies.
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.
