Drill bit sizes are written as irreducible fractions. So, instead of 78/64 inch, or 1 14/64 inch, the size is noted as 1 7/32 inch. Below is a chart providing the decimal-fraction equivalents that are most relevant to fractional-inch drill bit sizes (that is, 0 to 1 by 64ths).
A fraction is applied to the output unit (if there is only one), or to non-SI units ... ft in hand cm|frac=2|1}} → 18.45 inches (1.5 ft; 18.5 in; ...
A thousandth of an inch is a derived unit of length in a system of units using inches. Equal to 1 ⁄ 1000 of an inch, a thousandth is commonly called a thou / ˈ θ aʊ / (used for both singular and plural) or, particularly in North America, a mil (plural mils). The words are shortened forms of the English and Latin words for "thousand" (mille ...
When using "hand in" to convert to hands and inches, the rounded hands and inches values are equivalent, and use the same fraction, if any. Special rounding of the inches value only occurs when "hand in" is the output. For example, if the output is "in hand", the inches value is rounded independently from the hands value.
The fraction is reduced when possible: ... order=flip}} → 1 foot 3 inches by 3 feet 5 inches (380 mm × 1,040 mm) Words. Spelling of unit name: ...
Subdivisions of an inch are typically written using dyadic fractions with odd number numerators; for example, two and three-eighths of an inch would be written as 2 + 3 / 8 ″ and not as 2.375″ nor as 2 + 6 / 16 ″. However, for engineering purposes fractions are commonly given to three or four places of decimals and have been ...
Maps and electoral vote counts for the 2012 presidential election. Our latest estimate has Obama at 277 electoral votes and Romney at 206.
A standard one-inch micrometer has readout divisions of 0.001 inch and a rated accuracy of ±0.0001 inch [14] ("one tenth", in machinist parlance). Both the measuring instrument and the object being measured should be at room temperature for an accurate measurement; dirt, operator skill issue, and misuse (or abuse) of the instrument are the ...
