To measure the length of a hallway, you would typically use a measuring tool such as a tape measure or a measuring wheel.

There are many instruments to measure lengths. But selection of measuring device depends on the maximum length it can measure. For example a small ruler used in schools can measure maximum 15 centimeters (or 6 inches). Here is a list of some measuring devices for measuring length: 1. Ruler (also known as scale) max 30cm 2. Meter Rod (that used by tailors or cloth sellers), max 100 cm 3. Measuring Tape (used by surveying engineers) For measuring very large distances travelled, In vehicles, speedometers also have distance measuring display. Ships use knots for measuring nautical miles.
One profession that uses a measuring tape to measure length is carpentry. Carpenters use measuring tapes to accurately measure and cut wood for construction projects. They rely on precise measurements to ensure that their work is done correctly and to the required specifications.
