The same coinage act also set the value of an eagle at 10 dollars, and the dollar at 1 ⁄ 10 eagle.

One décime is equal to 10 decimal minutes, which is nearly equal to a quarter-hour (15 minutes) in standard time. Thus, "five hours two décimes" equals 5.2 decimal hours, roughly 12:30 p.m. in standard time. [ 8][ 9] One hundredth of a decimal second was a decimal tierce.
Power of 10. Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion.
