Question, why do Europeans measure height in meters then centimeters(or just centimeters). It seems to make more sense to use decimeters then centimeters. Just one of those traditional things?
As someone else said, decimeters aren't actually used by anyone. In fact, other than centimetres and decibels, I can't think of any commonly-used unit that uses a prefix that isn't a power of 1000. (kilo, mega, milli, micro, etc. are all powers of 1000)
Beer in hectoliters, and for some reason Austrians measure foods in dekagrams.
