Metric measurements use powers of 10. Any other system has NO bases or logic.
The appropriate metric prefix is centi- for 10-2
10 centimeters equal 1 decimeter.
The abbreviation dal stands for decalitres. A decalitre is equal to 10 litres.
You could do it by saying that all your measurements were 10 centimetres - irrespective of what they actually were. That would be neither precise nor accurate but it sure would be consistent!
