The decimeter is defined as one-tenth of a meter, making it a convenient measurement for intermediate lengths.

Decimeters are used worldwide to measure length and distance in various fields, including science, engineering, and everyday life. They provide a useful scale for measurements that are larger than centimeters but smaller than meters, and are commonly used in educational settings and certain industries.
