Convert 1.4 x 10-4 cm to decimeters

1.4 x 10^-5 dm

Explanation:

Centimeters (cm) and decimeters (dm) are interconvertible S.I units of length.

- A centimeter is one-hundredth of a meter i.e. 100cm = 1m

- A decimeter is one-tenth of a metre i.e. 10dm = 1m

Based on this, a centimeter is one-tenth of a decimeter i.e. 1dm = 10cm

Hence, to convert 1.4 x 10^-4 cm to dm, we divide the value by 10

= 1.4 x 10^-4 ÷ 10

= 0.00014 ÷ 10

= 0.000014

Convert back to scientific notation by counting the decimal point forward to have: 1.4 x 10^-5

Hence, 1.4 x 10^-4 cm is equivalent to 1.4 x 10^-5 dm.
