9 inches.
In terms of precision, 8 inches is more precise than 8 feet. This is because inches are a smaller unit of measurement compared to feet, with 1 foot being equivalent to 12 inches. Therefore, when measuring in inches, there are more increments or divisions within a foot, allowing for more precise measurements.
They are both as precise as the measuring tools. Precision is affected by the error introduced by the measurement or in a dimension, often known as the tolerance.A measurement in inches has a greater resolution than one in feet. 12 times the resolution in fact. However, a measurement of 178 inches that can be up to 15% out is not as precise as a measurement of 12 feet with a 1% possible error.
They are equally precise.
4 feet and 11" inches and 5/16 of an inch to be more or less precise
In ascending order: inches, feet, yards and miles
16.4 feet = 3.0928846014035 Plank ....and you can't get more precise than that.
They are equally precise, as we know exactly the conversion factor between inches and feet.
Inches, feet, miles, and more
inches are more precise than feet or yards
What determines how precise a measurement is
The best unit of measurement to measure a snake is typically in terms of its length, using either feet or meters. Additionally, the snake's length can also be measured in centimeters or inches for more precise measurements.
That depends whether the thing you're measuring is closer to 178 inches or 12 feet.However, if you round to the nearest measurement, a measurement of 178 inches can be within 2.54 centimetres of accuracy, while a measurement of 12 feet can be within 15.24 centimetres of accuracy - therefore making inches a much more accurate measurement.
