Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between micrometers and decameters.
What is a micrometer (μm)?
A micrometer is a unit of Length or Distance in the Metric System. The symbol for micrometer is μm. There are 10,000,000 micrometers in a decameter. The International spelling for this unit is micrometre.
What is a decameter (dam)?
A decameter is a unit of Length or Distance in the Metric System. The symbol for decameter is dam. Commonly a decameter is referred to as a dekameter and then the symbol used is dkm instead of dam. There are 0.0000001 decameters in a micrometer. The International spelling for this unit is decametre.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from micrometers to dam is:
dam = micrometers ÷ 10,000,000
