lower case d (Upper case is D is Deca)
Decimeter. From largest to smallest: kilo hecto deca UNIT deci centi milli
decagrams. from small to big: milli centi unit deci deca kilo

The tenth prefix is deci- indicated by "d" → 1/10 gram = 1 dg
a deca is bigger than a deci deca=10 deci=0.1
Deka is longer.
101 is the value of a deca. Do not get this confused with the value of deci , which is 10-1.
The symbol for the deci prefix is d. The symbol for gram is g. Therefore, the symbol for decigram is dg. Note that these symbols are case sensitive. It would be incorrect to write 'DG' or any other variation.
Deci meter comes before deka/deca meter since a deci meter is equal to 1 tenth of a meter so 10 cm while a deka/deca meter is equal to 10 meters.
da - deca - 101 - 100 d - deci - 10-1 - .1 deca is bigger, it essentially means ten times the base where deci means the base divided by 10
Algebraic Steps / Dimensional Analysis Formula ____ dg*1 g 10 dg=? g
deci- prefix means tenth→ 1 g = 10 dg→ 650 g = 650 x 10 dg=6500 dg

deci is one of the SI prefixes. Deci means 1/10th of a gram. This is not to be confused with deca which means 10 grams.
Mathematically speaking, dg could be deci-grams, ie one tenth of a gram. Without a context it is impossible to give an exact answer.
