1/10 meter
The smallest division on a meter rule, also known as a meter stick, is typically 1 millimeter (mm). This means that each small line or marking on the meter rule represents a distance of 1 mm. The meter rule is divided into centimeters (cm) and millimeters (mm), with each centimeter divided into 10 millimeters. The smallest division of 1 mm allows for precise measurements to be taken using the meter rule.
if a decimeter equals 10cm and a meter is 100cm then a square meter is 100X100 which is 10 000 so 10 000 divided by 10 is 1000 thus there are 1000 decimeters in a square meter
It is ten to the power of minus twenty four (10^-24, or 1 divided by 10^24) of a meter.. So basically you divide a meter of length so that you have a septillion (that is one (1) followed by 24 zeros (0s)) of equally long parts. (actually equally short parts) Then you take one part, and the length of that part is a yoctometer.
Fractions are a part of the whole. So 1/2 is a half of something. A circle divided into 10 parts, each part is 1/10th of the whole circle.
