Square Decimeter (dm²) is a unit in the category of Area. It is also known as square decimeters, square decimetre, square decimetres. This unit is commonly used in the SI unit system. Square Decimeter (dm²) has a dimension of L² where L is length. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit m² by multiplying its value by a factor of 0.01.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).
