A decimeter (dm) is a metric unit of length equivalent to one-tenth of a meter. It is commonly used to measure shorter lengths, such as the height of plants, dimensions of small objects, and the size of classroom furniture. Additionally, decimeters can be used in fields like agriculture and education for practical measurements where precision is needed without resorting to millimeters.
