∙ 14y agoNails are measured in terms of "pennies," abbreviated a "d," the way the now obsolete English coin, the Penny, was abbreviated.
Example: A one-inch nail would be "2d" or two pennies. A two-inch nail would be "6d."

What is a mathematical unit?
It depends on what you are measureing. If you are measuring distance the mathematical untis would be meters or feet. If you are measuring time the units would be seconds. If you were measuring mass the units would be grams. If you were measuring speed the units would be a combination of distance and time which is meters per seconds or feet per seconds. Mathematical units just tell what variation a certain number has. Ex. 3meters 3feet 3yards these are have the same number but different units and therefore that means they are all different measurements. It all depends on the units.
