To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −2 m and 10 −1 m (1 cm and 1 dm). 1 cm – 10 millimeters; 1 cm – 0.39 inches; 1 cm – edge of a square of area 1 cm 2; 1 cm – edge of a cube of volume 1 mL; 1 cm – length of a coffee bean; 1 cm – approximate width of average fingernail
The United States retained the 1 / 39.37 -metre definition for surveying, producing a 2 millionth part difference between standard and US survey inches. [47] This is approximately 1 / 8 inch per mile; 12.7 kilometres is exactly 500,000 standard inches and exactly 499,999 survey inches.
The recent formula used by the Brannock device assumes a foot length of 2 barleycorns less than the length of the last; thus, men's size 1 is equivalent to a last's length of 8 + 1 ⁄ 3 in (21.17 cm) and foot's length of 7 + 2 ⁄ 3 in (19.47 cm), and children's size 1 is equivalent to 4 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (10.8 cm) last's length and 3 + 7 ⁄ 12 in ...

In the twentieth century in the Republic of China, the lengths were standardized to fit with the metric system, and in current usage in People's Republic of China and Taiwan [citation needed] it measures 3 + 1 / 3 cm (~1.312 in). In Japan, the corresponding unit, sun (寸), was standardized at 1000 ⁄ 33 mm (3. 03 cm, ~1.193 in, or ~0. ...
The alternative Super series, denoted SnR, nR Plus or nR+, has an aspect ratio of 3∶2 (or as close as possible) and thus provides a better fit for standard 135 film (35 mm) at sizes of 8 inches or above. 5R is twice the size of a 2R print, 6R twice the size of a 4R print and S8R twice the size of 6R. 4D/6D is a newer size for most consumer ...
