Dm = 10 meters, dm = 0.1 meters. Note that neither unit is very common. Engineers usually prefer powers of 1000 (powers of 10, where the exponent is a multiple of 3), such as kilo, Mega, Giga ... and milli, micro, nano ... Specifically for units of length, the prefix "centi" (1/100), i.e. centimeter, is also quite popular.

Centimeters (cm) and decimeters (dm) are both units of length in the metric system. One decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters, so 1 dm = 10 cm. Decimeters are larger than centimeters in terms of length measurement.
