You look at the markings on its edge.
between 5 3/4 and 6 inch marks almost to the 6 inch mark, but not quite
If you are using a ruler marked only in inches then the best sub-division of an onch which approximates to 5 millimetres would be one-fifth of an inch. There are 25.4 millimetres in 1 inch.
Five eighths of an inch on a ruler would be located between the half-inch mark and the three-quarter inch mark.
you read a ruler by conting the little lines first
where is .39 on a ruler
between 5 3/4 and 6 inch marks almost to the 6 inch mark, but not quite

2.625 is the same as 2 and 5/8 which can be found on a ruler if it has 1/8 of an inch on it
inch ruler
A millimeter, as almost every 12 inch ruler has centimeters and millimeters on the opposite side of where inches are marked.
It's almost exactly 1/5 of the way from the beginning of the ruler to the 1-inch mark.
an inch ruler is 2.5cm and a cm is the same but smaller.....saichona
The answer depends on the measurement units used for 8.3
That depends on the ruler. If you refer to a 1 foot ruler, divided in inches and sub-inch divisions, then 0.39 inch is a more than a quarter inch, and less than a half inch.
You will not find 0.12 inches mark on the normal rule, but0.125 inches is 1/8th of an inch. Is that close enough?
Five eighths of an inch on a ruler would be located between the half-inch mark and the three-quarter inch mark.
0.35 is close to 11/32 which means if your ruler has divisions of sixteenths, it will be between 5/16 and 6/16.
