The meter is a unit of measurement. A length is as long as it may be, a certain number of meters, or a fraction of a meter. Until the length is known in some other unit of measure, it is impossible to say how long it is in meters, unless it is right in front of you and you can measure it with a meter stick or other form of ruler.

By international conference, convention, standard, and agreement, The Meter

has been officially defined to be exactly precisely one meter in length.

Through the use of modern estimation and approximation techniques, we find

that this length is roughly but not exactly equivalent to 3.28 feet, 39.37 inches,

1.0936 yard, 0.004971 furlong, and 0.0006214 mile.
