Which ruler is more precise-metric or non-metric?

Metric rulers are generally more precise than non-metric rulers because the metric system is based on units of ten, allowing for finer subdivisions and easier conversions between units. For example, a metric ruler may have measurements in millimeters, providing greater accuracy for small measurements. Non-metric rulers, such as those marked in inches, often have larger increments, which can lead to less precise measurements. Therefore, for tasks requiring high precision, metric rulers are typically preferred.
