Dekameter, one dekameter is equal to 100 meters.

Deca is the prefix for 10, one decametre is ten metres, one decalitre is ten litres. Having lived for over forty years in a metric country I have never seen it used in real life. Similarly deci for a tenth, and hecto for one hundred are never used. Centi for one hundredth is only used for centimetres, except for some wine bottles which use centilitres.
