Is a decimeter smaller or bigger than a millimeter?

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.

There isn't a full decimeter in a millimeter. A decimeter is equal to ten centimeters. There are ten millimeters in one centimeter. So, it stands to reason that there are 100 millimeters in a decimeter. But, to answer your question, there is 1/100, or 1% of a decimeter in a millimeter.
