Divide decimeter by 10 and you get meters. Multiply meters by 10 and you get decimeters. 1 decimeter is 1/10 of a meter. There are 10 decimeters in a meter.
1 decimeter = 1/10 of 1 meter.
A decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters and 100 centimeters make a meter. So a centimeter would be 0.01 meters and a decimeter is ten times a centimeter so a decimeter is 0.1 meters.0.01=centimeter0.01x10=0.1=decimeterBecause it just is....
700 cm is not a fraction of 1 meter rather 700 cm is a multiple of 1 meter (7 times a meter)

It is 1/10 of a meter
A decimetre is one tenth (1/10) of a metre.
10 centimeters is 1/10 of a meter because there are 100 centimeters in a meter.
there are ten decimeter in in one meter. DECImeter
1 decimeter = 10^-1 meter.
A decimeter is 1/10 of a meter
1 Decimeter = 1/10 Meter. 10 Decimeters = 1 Meter
The centimeter is smaller than the decimeter. A decimeter is 1/10 of a meter, and a centimeter is 1/100 of a meter.
1 m = 10 decimeter
A decimeter is one tenth of a meter (1/10 meter, 0.1 meter).A decimeter is also 10 centimeters or 3.937008 inches.A decimeter is 10 centimeters or 3.937008 inches. A crayon is approximately 1 decimeter long
1 hectometer = 100 meters. 1 decimeter = 0.1 meters(1 decimeter)*(0.1 meter/decimeter)/(100 meter/hectometer) = 0.001 hectometer
Meter is bigger than decimeter. 1 meter = 10 decimeters
