150mm would be six inches.
A 12 inch ruler can have millimetres on the other side and would be 300mm which is 30 cm. Only 20 cm is 8 inches. So - 200 cm is 10 times as much which is 80 inches which is 6 feet 8 inches.
The precision of something just means that the result can be repeated again and again. Everytime you repeat an experiment, you will get the same result. But that doesn't necessarily mean that the results are accurate! Your measurments, results, whatever can be very precise, but completely inaccurate. Accuracy is how close something is to the true value. For example, say I have a ruler. I have used this ruler to measure my table 10 times. Every time I measure the table, I get a measurement of 10ft. My measurement is very precise. However, what I don't know is that there is a fault with my ruler. The inches on my ruler are not true inches. Each inch may actually be only 1/9th of an inch. Or all the inches on my ruler may not even be the same. So while my measurements I took with my ruler 10 times are precise, they are not accurate because there is fault with my ruler. Something can be precise, but not necessarily accurate! I would say that this is the biggest limitation of precision. A precise measurement is not always a reliable one!
a metric ruler is a measuring instrument where the units of measures are not inches, but centimeters. 10 millimetres = 1 centimetre 1 inch = 2.54 centimetre In the world, only three countries haved not yet adopted the metric system: Liberia, the United States, and Myanmar. To help people used to the older system, it is possible to find rulers that have a double system, the centimetres being engraved on one side of the ruler while inches are engraved on the other side.
I'll say a ruler . . . you can do that job with only one of them.
14/25 Household and carpenter rulers are typically marked in feet and inches. For your question, find the percentage of a foot (.56) in inches - (one foot = 12 inches)12 x .56 = 6.72 inches. = 6 inches and .72 of an inch... convert one inch into 100 equal parts then divide by 72... 72/100... then the fraction can easily be found = 18/25. A typical ruler shows only 16 divisions of an inch, now you can see that it takes 4 of the 16th inch divisions to equal 48 and therefore you can estimate 36/4 or slightly over 18/32 and under 24/32. SO, on a ruler your mark should be slightly below 6 3/4 inches. If you cut at 6 3/4 inches, you can file off the remaining .03 inches. Most machinists rulers are marked in 10ths and 100ths.
If the ruler only has inches and millimeters, just use the millimeters side. Remember, there are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter.
You use a ruler or similar object that is marked with centimeters. If your ruler only has inches, measure the inches, then multiply with 2.54 to get centimeters.
Usually nowhere. Most rulers are only 12 inches long and so you will not find 32.5 inches on them. Longer rulers will not have the normal graduation (numbers and marks on the ruler) so it is hard to tell where 32.5 inches will be.
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.
1 yard = 36 inches = 3 times the 12 inch ruler.
Convert inches to cm. Multiply the number of inches by 2.54 to get the same distance in cm.
I can only answer the I have twelve inches but I don't use it as a rule. I hope this helps with your question. The Big Dog Down Under

there is no inches in a centimeter. Thats impossible. There are centimeters in inches,though. if you want to find out google it.

The straightedge can only be used to draw a straight line, or check to see if a surface is flat, but cannot measure length. A ruler can be used to draw a straight line or check for flatness, and a ruler can also measure length because it has evenly spaced markes denoting inches and centimeters.
