What are Decimeter and Petameter

A decimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-tenth of a meter. It is a common measurement in areas where smaller units than the meter are required, such as interior dimensions, engineering, and topographic data. The decimeter helps bridge the gap between centimeters and meters, providing a convenient scale for various measurements.

A petameter is an astronomical unit of measure in the metric system that is equal to 10^15 meters. It's used to express extremely long distances that are beyond the scale of everyday use. For context, petameters might be used in astrophysics or cosmology to describe distances between galaxies or other large-scale structures in the universe.
