A millimeter, as almost every 12 inch ruler has centimeters and millimeters on the opposite side of where inches are marked.
A metric ruler is not a fixed length. A school ruler is normally 12 inches and this would be 30 cm, but I have a workshop ruler that is 60 cm, and you can buy longer ones. The thing to remember is that 1 inch = 2.54 cm
5/8 of an inch 10/16 20/32
It is a linear length and as a ruler it is not round.
You have answered your own question really. However I suspect you mean what is the length in cm/mm in which case 1/10 of an inch is equal to 0.254cm or 2.54mm (also on an inch ruler, it will fall between 1/8 inch and 3/32 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?
The resolution of a ruler refers to the smallest measurement increment that can be accurately read or measured using the ruler. It is typically determined by the smallest division marked on the ruler, such as millimeters or fractions of an inch.
A ruler typically measures length in inches or centimeters. If a ruler is marked in inches, 0.2 inches would be represented by a distance of about 5 millimeters (mm) on the ruler, as there are 25.4 millimeters in an inch. If the ruler is marked in centimeters, 0.2 centimeters would be represented by a distance of about 2 millimeters on the ruler. It's important to note that not all rulers will have markings for every increment, and the accuracy of the ruler may also affect the exact measurement.
It depends. If it is a metric ruler then they are most likely to be millimetres. On an Imperial ruler the smallest may be sixteenths of an inch.
Depends on the length of the ruler A 6 inch ruler would show 6 whole inches A 12 inch ruler would show 12 whole inches.
To read a 50th inch ruler, first identify the smallest unit of measurement, which is typically the smallest mark between the inches. Each inch is divided into 50 equal parts, so each mark represents 1/50th of an inch. Count the number of marks from the 0 inch mark to your desired measurement. For precision, ensure you align the object accurately with the ruler for an accurate reading.
On a typical inch ruler the smallest lines are 1/16th dimensions. The next biggest are 1/8th", then 1/4", and finally 1/2".

A millimeter on a non-metric ruler is the smallest unit of measurement typically marked on the ruler. It is equal to one-thousandth of a meter or approximately 0.03937 of an inch. It allows for more precise measurements than larger units like centimeters or inches.

The smallest measurable length is one Planck length, which is approximately 1.6 x 10^-35 meters. It is considered to be the smallest possible meaningful length in the universe according to current theories of physics.
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.
The measurement of 4.55 on a ruler indicates a length of 4.55 units, typically in inches or centimeters, depending on the type of ruler being used. This means it is 4 whole units and an additional 0.55 of the next unit. On a ruler marked in inches, 0.55 would be slightly more than half an inch, while on a centimeter ruler, it would be just over 5.5 millimeters.
