Decimeters are useful in estimating volume. Judge the dimensions of something in decimeters, multiply out, and voila- you've got liters. Nat

If sow then Where? Hi there people; I might be mistaken with my views of proper metric usage yet I fell the need to share the embarrassment of asking if there is a place held in the proper Si metric system that includes Decimeter. I have asked this question of .0 and often I have received mixed answer that would include .00 (Centimeter)as a focal point of the question. The answer would still lack definition. Again I find the need to ask if there is a place held in the SI metric system called Decimeter that represents .0 ? Looking forward to any input that might help define the wonderment I often encounter. Thanks Tim Moylan
