Decare / Dm2 Units Definition
Decare
The decare or dekare (/ˈdɛkɑːr, -ɛər/) is derived from deca and are, and is equal to 10 ares or 1000 square meters. It is used in Norway and the former Ottoman regions of the Middle East and the Balkans (Bulgaria) as a measure of land area.
dm2 (Square decimeter)
Therefore, a square decimeter (or "square decimeter" in British spelling) is one tenth of a square meter. It can also be expressed by ten square centimeters. A rough example of a decimeter could be the average surface area of some smartphone screens.
