What is a metric tablespoon used for?

A metric tablespoon is used mainly to measure small volumes of liquid or dry ingredients in cooking and household dosing.

What does one cord represent?

One cord is a large volume unit for stacked firewood, defined as 128 cubic feet or approximately 3.62 cubic meters.

Why are conversions from tablespoon to cord resulting in small decimals?

Because a tablespoon measures a very small volume, while a cord measures a much larger volume, so the conversion results in very small decimal values.
