Because some smart aleck thought that it would be good to have measurements.
To determine the relative uncertainty in a measurement, you can calculate the ratio of the uncertainty in the measurement to the actual measurement itself. This ratio gives you a percentage that represents the level of uncertainty in the measurement.
A correct temperature measurement should include the unit of measurement (e.g. degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit), the value of the temperature read, the location or context in which the measurement was taken, and the date and time of the measurement.
The precision of a measurement can be determined by looking at the number of decimal places in the measurement. The more decimal places, the more precise the measurement. Additionally, if a measuring tool is capable of measuring smaller increments, it can provide a more precise measurement.
The metric system uses kilograms as a unit of measurement for mass.
The accuracy of a measurement refers to how close it is to the accepted or true value. This can be assessed by comparing the measurement to a known standard or by considering the degree of error or uncertainty associated with the measurement.

From Greek. Trigon comes from 3-sided figure, now known as a triangle. Metry comes from measurement.
The foot ruler term came about from the measure used on a ruler which is exactly twelve inches long. A foot is a standard measure therefore came the foot ruler to represent one unit of measurement.
They came in different sizes, but the radius of the wheel had to be less than the inseam measurement of the rider.

They had the sundial, pieces of rope, they usually used the kings arm-length and the length of his foot (thats where the name foot came from)
the smallest measurement in the us
The Spanish conquistadors can be dated with Columbus. Even if history uses Cortes' as the measurement, Cartier was later.
The "inch" measurement is an imperial standard measure (it came from the old British standards). Thus it is not dependant on the state in which you live. You should actually look at the international standards for measurement (The ISO standards) which the rest of the world ?(including the British) now use. This makes the unit of length the "metre" standard between all countries (except the US).
