Meter (m). The meter is the SI base unit of length, defined by the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Decimeter (dm). A decimeter is one tenth of a meter (10 centimeters), used mostly in schools and some sciences.
There are 10 decimeters in one meter.
Multiply the number of meters by 10. For example, 10 meters equal 100 decimeters.
One decimeter equals 0.1 meters.
120 decimeters. Other common values: 5 meters = 50 decimeters and 100 meters = 1,000 decimeters.
