No - a decimeter is approximately the width of an adults hand and a kilometre would take a few minutes to walk.

Let's state it properly shall we...?
1 decimetre (dm) = 1/10 metre, so yes, about four inches.
1 kilometre (km) = 1000m; about 5/8 mile.
The spellings I use are their original French. A metre is a measure of; a meter measures it.
Yes. A decimeter is 1 tenth of a meter ( 1/10 - 0.1). A kilometer is 1000 meters.
Nanometer (1 billionth of a meter)
Millimeter (One thousandth of a meter)
Centimeter (One hundredth of a meter)
Decimeter (One tenth of a meter)

Decameter (10 meters)
Hectometer (100 meters)
Kilometer (1000 meters)
myriameter (10,000 meters)
A mile is larger than a decimeter. One mile is equivalent to 1609.34 meters, while one decimeter is equivalent to 0.1 meters. This means a mile is significantly longer than a decimeter.
Yes, 0.3 mL is smaller than 0.7 mL in a blood glucose meter. The difference between them is 0.4 mL.
A gram is smaller than a meter. A gram is a unit of mass used to measure weight, while a meter is a unit of length used to measure distance.
Yes, there are units for measuring smaller lengths than a millimeter. For example, a micrometer is one millionth of a meter, and a nanometer is one billionth of a meter. These units are commonly used in fields such as nanotechnology and microbiology to measure very small distances.
A nanometer is about 1,000 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair. A human hair is typically around 80,000-100,000 nanometers in diameter, while a nanometer is one-billionth of a meter.
No, a decimeter is not smaller than a millimeter. A decimeter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one-tenth of a meter, while a millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter. Therefore, a millimeter is smaller than a decimeter by a factor of 100.
No; a decimeter is one-tenth of a meter and a millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter.
The centimeter is smaller than the decimeter. A decimeter is 1/10 of a meter, and a centimeter is 1/100 of a meter.
A decimeter is ten times smaller than a meter
A decimeter is a tenth of a meter.
Sorry, not larger, but smaller. A decimeter is 1/10th of a meter.
Yes. Deci is one-tenth. A decimeter is 0,1 meter. This should not be confused with a decameter which is 10 meters.
1 Decimeter = 1/10 Meter. 10 Decimeters = 1 Meter
It is 100 times smaller, because a decimeter is 10 times smaller than a meter and a milimeter is 1,000 times smaller than a meter. 10/1000=100
A decimeter
1 millimeter is 10x smaller than a centimeter, 100x smaller than a decimeter and 1000x smaller than a meter.
Units of measure that are smaller than a meter include:decimeter (dm) but rarely usedcentimeter (cm)millimeter (mm)micrometer (um)nanometer (nm)picometer
