The Yard (yd) is often used in sports and fabric measurements. A football field is 100 yards long, a yardstick is 1 yard, and a swimming pool can be around 25 yards in length. It’s a common unit in the United States and the UK for measuring land and fabrics. 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 Yard (yd) and Decameter (dam), use the following formulas:
1 Yard (yd) = 0.09144 Decameter (dam)
1 Decameter (dam) = 10.936132983377078 Yard (yd)
1 yd = 1 * 0.09144 dam = 0.09144 dam
2 yd = 2 * 0.09144 dam = 0.18288 dam
5 yd = 5 * 0.09144 dam = 0.45719999999999994 dam
10 yd = 10 * 0.09144 dam = 0.9143999999999999 dam
20 yd = 20 * 0.09144 dam = 1.8287999999999998 dam
50 yd = 50 * 0.09144 dam = 4.572 dam
100 yd = 100 * 0.09144 dam = 9.144 dam
