The Meter (m) or (mtr) is used for everyday measurements like room dimensions (3-4 meters), the height of a door (2 meters), or the length of a car (4-5 meters). It's also used in sports, such as the height of a basketball hoop (3.05 meters). The decameter (dam) is used to measure medium-scale distances like the length of a tennis court (~2.3 dam) or a cricket pitch (~2.0 dam). It’s also practical for land surveying and agricultural plots (e.g., a small field might be 10 dam × 20 dam).
To convert between Meter (m) and Decameter (dam), use the following formulas:
1 Meter (m) = 0.1 Decameter (dam)
1 Decameter (dam) = 10 Meter (m)
1 m = 1 * 0.1 dam = 0.1 dam
3 m = 3 * 0.1 dam = 0.30000000000000004 dam
5 m = 5 * 0.1 dam = 0.5 dam
7 m = 7 * 0.1 dam = 0.7000000000000001 dam
10 m = 10 * 0.1 dam = 1 dam
20 m = 20 * 0.1 dam = 2 dam
100 m = 100 * 0.1 dam = 10 dam
| Meter (m) | Decameter (dam) |

| 0.1 m | 0.010000000000000002 dam |
| 1 m | 0.1 dam |
| 5 m | 0.5 dam |
| 10 m | 1 dam |
| 50 m | 5 dam |
| 100 m | 10 dam |
| 200 m | 20 dam |
| 500 m | 50 dam |
