>>Avery. I think that you could read very much answers on the list but is
>>important to know that: 1 kilometer=10 decameters
>>1 decameter=10 meters
>>1 meter=10 decimeters
>>1 decimeter=10 centimeters and 1 centimeter=10 milimiters.
>>So if you know that 1 inch=2.54centimeters is easy you transform the
>>measurement that you want. Happy New Year
