Convert Newtons to Decanewtons

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

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

Going the other way? Convert daN to N.
