Examples
1
Consider that a property boundary is marked as 10 poles long. Convert this distance from poles to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in poles is:
Length(Poles) = 10
Formula:
The formula to convert length from poles to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Poles) / 1.988387815
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Poles) = 10 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 10 / 1.988387815
Length(Dekameters) = 5.0292
Final Answer:
Therefore, 10 pole is equal to 5.0292 dam.
The length is 5.0292 dam, in dekameters.
2
Consider that a garden fence is constructed at a length of 20 poles. Convert this length from poles to Dekameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in poles is:
Length(Poles) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert length from poles to dekameters is:
Length(Dekameters) = Length(Poles) / 1.988387815
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Poles) = 20 in the above formula.
Length(Dekameters) = 20 / 1.988387815
Length(Dekameters) = 10.0584
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 pole is equal to 10.0584 dam.
The length is 10.0584 dam, in dekameters.

Poles
A pole is a unit of length used primarily in land measurement and surveying. One pole is equivalent to 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.
The pole is defined as 16.5 feet, which is the same length as a rod or a perch, and is used in various practical applications such as land measurement and construction.
Poles are used in land surveying, property measurement, and agricultural contexts. The unit provides a practical 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.
