Since the millimeter is smaller than a decimeter, it is customary to ask how many millimeters are in a decimeter, not the other way around, but no matter, as long as you realize there will be only a fraction of a decimeter in a millimeter. Let's review: A millimeter is 0.001 meter. A centimeter is 0.01 meter. A decimeter is 0.1 meter. From the facts above, we can easily see that a decimeter is 100 times larger than a millimeter. That means there are 100 millimeters in a decimeter, and there is 0.01 decimeter in a millimeter. The cool thing about the metric system is that multiplying and dividing by ten is easy to remember and do. Here are some examples: If you have 3000 millimeters, you can easily divide that number by ten and say that you have 300 centimeters. Divide it again and you have 30 decimeters. Divide it again and you have three meters. Pretty easy stuff - - and very convenient. All those amounts are equal.
What else can I help you with?
Is a decimeter smaller then a millimeter?
No, a decimeter is not smaller than a millimeter. A decimeter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one-tenth of a meter, while a millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter. Therefore, a millimeter is smaller than a decimeter by a factor of 100.
Is decimeter smaller than millimeter?
No; a decimeter is one-tenth of a meter and a millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter.

1 decimeter is 10 centimeters.
Is two millimeters a lot or a little?
1 millimeter is 10x smaller than a centimeter, 100x smaller than a decimeter and 1000x smaller than a meter.
What is bigger than a millimeter but smaller than a kilometer?
a meter
How many times smaller is a millimeter compared to a decimeter?
It is 100 times smaller, because a decimeter is 10 times smaller than a meter and a milimeter is 1,000 times smaller than a meter. 10/1000=100
Is a centimeter bigger then a decimeter?
No, a decimeter is bigger than a centimeter!

Is a millimeter smaller than centimeter?
Yes a millimeter is smaller than a centimeter according to the mathematics metric scale the following comes in ascending order - MM (millimeter) CM (centimeter) DM (decimeter) M (meter) DAM (decameter) HM (hectometer) KM (kilometer)
