How to convert ratios to decades

Convert through a plain ratio: ratio → ratio → decade. Logarithmic units cannot be converted by multiplying alone.

Ratio: The plain multiplier every logarithmic unit here converts through. Read a decibel figure as an encoding of this number.

Decade: A factor of ten. Bode plots are drawn per decade.
