How to convert dekameters to parsecs
1 dekameter is equal to 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁶ parsecs, and 1 parsec is equal to 3.085677581 × 10¹⁵ dekameters. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
parsecs = dekameters × 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁶
parsecs = dekameters ÷ 3.085677581 × 10¹⁵Example: convert 1 dam to pc: 1 × 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁶ = 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁶ pc.

About the parsec
A parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond: about 3.26 light-years (3.086 × 10¹⁶ m). Astronomers use it for distances to stars.
