A DMS value is converted to decimal degrees using the formula: = + + For instance, the decimal degree representation for 38° 53′ 23″ N, 77° 00′ 32″ W (the location of the United States Capitol) is 38.8897°, -77.0089°
Clayton R. Paul provide a simple illustration that explains CM and DM terms on his book. [5] A pair of parallel conductors with current Î 1 and Î 2 flowing on each conductor, which can be decomposed into CM and DM current respectively. Fig. 1. CM and DM Current Illustration on Pair Conductors.
The factor–label method can convert only unit quantities for which the units are in a linear relationship intersecting at 0 (ratio scale in Stevens's typology). Most conversions fit this paradigm. An example for which it cannot be used is the conversion between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale (or the Fahrenheit scale). Between degrees ...

11 cm = 1.1 dm – length of an average potato in the US; 13 cm = 1.3 dm – body length of a Goliath birdeater; 15 cm = 1.5 dm – approximate size of largest beetle species; 19 cm = 1.9 dm – length of a banana; 26.3 cm = 2.6 dm – length of average male human foot; 29.98 cm = 2.998 dm – distance light in vacuum travels in one nanosecond
The decimetre (or decimeter in American English; symbol: dm), is a unit of length in the International System of Units, equal to one tenth of a metre, ten centimetres, one hundred millimetres, and 3.937 inches.
The number density (symbol: n or ρ N) is an intensive quantity used to describe the degree of concentration of countable objects (particles, molecules, phonons, cells, galaxies, etc.) in physical space: three-dimensional volumetric number density, two-dimensional areal number density, or one-dimensional linear number density.
The molar volume has the SI unit of cubic metres per mole (m 3 /mol), [1] although it is more typical to use the units cubic decimetres per mole (dm 3 /mol) for gases, and cubic centimetres per mole (cm 3 /mol) for liquids and solids.
