How to convert dekameters to nanometers
1 dekameter is equal to 10,000,000,000 nanometers, and 1 nanometer is equal to 1 × 10⁻¹⁰ dekameters. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
nanometers = dekameters × 10,000,000,000
nanometers = dekameters ÷ 1 × 10⁻¹⁰Example: convert 1 dam to nm: 1 × 10,000,000,000 = 10,000,000,000 nm.

About the dekameter
A dekameter (also spelled decameter) is 10 meters. It's an SI unit that is seldom used in practice, apart from some sports and forestry measurements.
Symbol: dam · 1 dam = 10 m · Category: Metric (SI)
About the nanometer
A nanometer is one billionth of a meter. It's used for wavelengths of light (visible light is about 380–750 nm), molecules and chip manufacturing processes.
Symbol: nm · 1 nm = 1 × 10⁻⁹ m · Category: Metric (SI)
