What are Decimeter and Gigameter

Definition of Decimeter

A decimeter (dm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-tenth of a meter. It is a standard unit of measurement that is used for dimensions not conveniently expressed in meters or centimeters, providing an intermediate scale for precision.

Definition of Gigameter

A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the metric system that equals one billion meters (1,000,000,000 meters). It is used for measuring astronomical distances within the solar system or between galaxies, emphasizing its role in large-scale space measurements.

Decimeter to Gigameter Conversion Table

Decimeter (dm) Gigameter (Gm)
1 dm 1e-10 Gm
10 dm 1e-9 Gm
100 dm 1e-8 Gm
1,000 dm 1e-7 Gm
10,000 dm 1e-6 Gm
100,000 dm 1e-5 Gm
1,000,000 dm 1e-4 Gm
10,000,000 dm 1e-3 Gm
100,000,000 dm 1e-2 Gm
1,000,000,000 dm 1e-1 Gm

Conversion of Decimeter to Gigameter

1 dm = 1e-10 Gm
1 Gm = 1e+10 dm

Example 1:
convert 5 dm to Gm:
5 dm = 5 x 1e-10 Gm = 5e-10 Gm

Example 2:
convert 250 dm to Gm:
250 dm = 250 x 1e-10 Gm = 2.5e-8 Gm
