1 inch = 2.54 cm exact = 25.4 mm and 1 foot (feet) = 12 inch (inches) = 30.48 cm

1 yard yd = 0.9144 m = 36 inches (in) = 3 feet (ft) und 1 land mile = 5280 feet = 1609.344 m

1 m (meter) = 10 dm (decimeters) = 100 cm = 1,000 mm and 1 cm = 10 mm = 0.1 dm = 0.01 m

1 km (kilometer) = 1000 m (meters) = 100,000 cm (centimeters) = 1,000,000 mm (millimeters)

The international inch is defined in terms of the metric (!) system of units to be exactly (!) 25.4 mm. This definition was agreed upon by the U.S. and them British Commonwealth in 1958. Prior to that, the U.S. and Canada each had their own, slightly different definition of the inch in terms of metric units, while the U.K. and other Commonwealth countries defined the inch in terms of the Imperial Standard Yard. The U.S. continued to use its previous national definition of the inch for surveying purposes. This inch, known as the U.S. survey inch is defined so that 1 metre is exactly 39.37 survey inches. 1 survey inch equals approximately 25.40000508 mm, or 1.000002 international inches.

What is the difference between a measured digit and an exact number?

Hi! Wow, good question! In chemistry, an exact number is one that you know is absolutely true. For example, these are exact numbers: 12 inches in a foot 9 roses 1000mg in 1 g However, a measured number is one that needs significant figures. For example, these are measured numbers: 12.3 g 1001 liters 361.3 miles These are numbers that you aren't absolutely sure. If you weigh something and it states 3.0 grams, that is NOT an exact number, but rather a measured number. For all you know, the weight may be 3.00000003, but since the weighing scale can only show two digits, you get 3.0 g. Good luck!
