    What is a Decameter?

    Definition: A Decameter (symbol: dam) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The decameter whose sign is indicated as 'dam' is one of the few distinctive standards of length in the metric system and equals ten meters. Although it is a rare unit that hardly comes up in peoples’ day-to-day activities. the decameter is quite useful when measuring mid-range distances as meters would seem too small while kilometers would be too large to measure.
    History of dam: A decimeter is a measurement that is ten times larger than a meter: the ten meters were adopted as part of the metric system during the late 18th century French Revolution. This was mainly because, at that period, different regions used inconsistent units of measurement in order to trade or even communicate scientific findings. France introduced revolutionary ideas into the standardization attempts, and in 1791, the French Academy of Science introduced the metric system - a rational, and a decimal-based system that stood for the universal one.

    What is a hectometer?

    Definition: A Hectometer (symbol: hm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). In our next segment, we will look closely at the hectometer, abbreviated 'hm', which is a metric unit of linear measurement equal to one hundred meters. Though it’s not often used when speaking in normal casual conversation, the hectometer is a useful unit of measurement of larger distances, especially in geography, agriculture, and environmental science. A hectometer is a little over the width of a football field that is approximately one hectometer in length. This makes the hectometer a handy tool for measurement between meters that are too small and kilometers that are too large.
    History of hm: It was not until 1791 during the French Revolution that the French Academy of Sciences formally put into practice of the metric system against which the meter was to be measured; this being the distance on a projected line of longitude. To accompany the meter, different multiples and fractions were established of which the hectometer that is equivalent to one hundred meters was adopted. This new system was purposefully set up to be as organized and rational as possible to increase decimal-based speed and thus precision.

    How to convert Decameter to hectometer

    Convert Decameter to hectometer Calculation formula

    Now to convert decameters to hectometers, divide the length in decameters by 10
