Conversion Formula

1 dm = 100000000000 pm

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 dm = 0.1 meters
   1 pm = 1.0E-12 meters
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 dm = (0.1 m) / (1.0E-12 m/pm) = 100000000000 pm
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in dm by 100000000000 to get the equivalent in pm

Example Conversion
