How do you measure a quarter?

Your question can be read in more than one way. If you mean, how do you divide something into quarters, the easiest way is to divide it in half, and then divide that half into half again. Half of half is a quarter. But this technique is not always easy to use, it depends upon what you are measuring. Measuring the surface area of a piece of paper is quite a different process than measuring the volume of a fluid, and so forth. You may also be talking about the 25 cent piece known as a quarter. There are several measurements that can be made of a quarter: its diameter, which is slightly less than an inch (measure it with a ruler), or its weight (weigh it on a postal scale) etc.

A2 A quarter is an ambiguous term. It could refer to a length of time in a game; a quart is one quarter of a gallon; and in very old usage, it means to give respite (somewhat related to the quarter in a game). And as above in the US it is a quarter of a dollar.
