The term you are describing is "length." Length is the measurement of the longest dimension of an object in space, typically from one point to another in a straight line. It is commonly expressed in linear units such as inches, feet, meters, or kilometers.
The metric system is used by scientists because it is based on factors of ten. This makes it easy to convert from one unit of measurement to another.
A line.
DISTANCE!!!!

The straight-line measurement from one point to another through the origin of a circle is the diameter of the circle.
Distance.

5'5 is a length measurement and pounds is a weight measurement. They can not be converted from one type of measurement into another.
one disadvantage is that we could get a measurement mixed up with another measurement.

When measuring one point to another point you are measuring distance.
That means that if you have a measurement in one unit, you convert it to another unit. For example, if a measurement is given in millimeters, you may need to convert it to meters.
accuracy
To transfer elevations, BM + BS = HI - FS = Elevation BM - Benchmark BS - Backsight, or a measurement taken on a benchmark HI - height of the instrument FS - Foresight, or a measurement taken on an unknown point

"Three point one." The zero isn't really needed, but you might add it to denote the precision of the measurement, to differentiate "Three point one zero" from "three point one one".
