    What is a Hectometer?

    Definition: A Hectometer (symbol: hm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). In our next segment, we will look closely at the hectometer, abbreviated 'hm', which is a metric unit of linear measurement equal to one hundred meters. Though it’s not often used when speaking in normal casual conversation, the hectometer is a useful unit of measurement of larger distances, especially in geography, agriculture, and environmental science. A hectometer is a little over the width of a football field that is approximately one hectometer in length. This makes the hectometer a handy tool for measurement between meters that are too small and kilometers that are too large.
    History of hm: It was not until 1791 during the French Revolution that the French Academy of Sciences formally put into practice of the metric system against which the meter was to be measured; this being the distance on a projected line of longitude. To accompany the meter, different multiples and fractions were established of which the hectometer that is equivalent to one hundred meters was adopted. This new system was purposefully set up to be as organized and rational as possible to increase decimal-based speed and thus precision.

    What is a Decimeter?

    Definition: A Decimeter (symbol: dm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The decimeter, abbreviated as 'dm', is a unit of length that people use but rarely can recall its name, let alone its abbreviation. It measures 1/10 of a meter or equivalently, 10 centimeters. Though it is not used in day-to-day life as much as centimeters or meters it is quite useful to measure middle-sized objects as it is in between centimeters and meters.
    History of dm: It was established that the decimeter which is a metric unit of measurement, one-tenth of a meter originated from the French Revolution in the late 18th century. Before this uniform system, measurements were and came with problems contributing to bottlenecks in commerce and science.

    How to convert Hectometer to Decimeter

    Convert Hectometer to Decimeter Calculation formula

    Now to multiply the number of hectometers by 1,000 to get the equivalent value in decimeters.

    Decimetre = 1000 × Hectometre

    Suggested Reading

    For Example, Convert 4 Hectometer to Decimeter:

    Decimetre = 1000 × Hectometre
    Decimetre = 1000 × 4hm
    Decimetre = 4000dm
