The deca- (da) prefix means 10, thus:
10 dam = 10 x 10 m = 100 m = 1 hm (1 hectometre) = 0.1 km = 1000 dm (decimetre) = 10000 cm = 100000 mm
With appropriate multiplication/division, other metric prefixes can be used, eg
10 dam = 0.0001 Mm (mega metres) = 100000000 µm (micro metres), etc.
The decameter or 1 dam is equal to 10 meters. So 10 dam is 100 meters.
just remember this: mm cm dam m dm hm km dam is .10 m okey ?? :D
hm: multiply by 105 dam: multiply by 104
hoeveel is 1 dam in m hoeveel is 1 dam in m
dm means decimeter. It is easy to get confused of dm and dam. dm- decimeter dam- decameter Hope that helped you with ur math.....
There are many different ways to write 5m in metric units: .005 km .05 hm .5 dam 50 dm 500 cm 5000 mm
The decameter or 1 dam is equal to 10 meters. So 10 dam is 100 meters.
The abbreviated form of decametre - a metric unit equal to 10 metres - is dam - make sure to distinguish this from dm, short for decimetre, equal to 0.1 metres.
1 dekameter (dam) = 10 meters
1 dekametre = 10 metres so 10 dekametres = 10*10 = 100 metres. Simple!
The word DAM in the metric system is dakameter! Hope this helps!
1 dam = 10 metres.
"Dam" Stands For the unit decimeter. It is usually easy to mix the unit abbreviation "dam" with the abbreviation dm which stands for diameter
well 1 dam is 10 meters, which is 1000 cm. so 1000 x the # of dam- which in this case is 99. so the answer is 99000. gud luck...
If your measuring it for a science class then you should use a metric measurement, in this case centimeters. If its for a math problem then measure it in whatever units that were given to you in the original problem to make conversions easier. If its for anything else then just use your best judgement.
you ain't worth a dam. dam being an Arabic unit of measurement that is worth approximately one tenth of one penny.
