Examples
1
Consider that an old stone wall is 15 perches in length. Convert this length from perches to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in perch is:
Length(Perch) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert length from perch to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Perch) / 1.988387815
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Perch) = 15 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 15 / 1.988387815
Length(Dekameters) = 7.5438
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 perch is equal to 7.5438 dam.
The length is 7.5438 dam, in dekameters.
2
Consider that a plot of land is surveyed at 25 perches. Convert this measurement from perches to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in perch is:
Length(Perch) = 25
Formula:
The formula to convert length from perch to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Perch) / 1.988387815
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Perch) = 25 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 25 / 1.988387815
Length(Dekameters) = 12.573
Final Answer:
Therefore, 25 perch is equal to 12.573 dam.
The length is 12.573 dam, in dekameters.

Perch
A perch is a unit of length used primarily in land measurement and surveying. One perch is equivalent to 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.
The perch is defined as 16.5 feet, which is the same length as a rod or a pole, and is used in various practical applications such as land measurement and construction.
Perches are used in land surveying, property measurement, and agricultural contexts. The unit provides a convenient measurement for shorter distances and has historical significance in land measurement practices.
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.
