Best Answer

Different rulers may have different marks between the inches. There could be half

inches, quarter inches, eighths, tenths, sixteenths, or even thirty-seconds of an

inch.

There may be more than one of these sets on the same ruler, and also, quite often,

there are marks in the first inch or two that are not continued on the rest of the

ruler.
