Convert Decanewtons to Newtons

Decanewtons → Newtons
daN × 10 = N N × 0.1 = daN

To convert decanewtons (daN) to newtons (N), multiply the decanewtons value by 10. 1 daN = 10 N, and 1 N = 0.1 daN. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert N to daN.
