Inches is the best unit of measure.
which is a better estimate for length of a pencil
The most common measurements are milimeters,cm, m ,km .Out of these units the basic unit of measuring the length of pencil is cm.
grams (for their mass), centimetres (for length), millimetres (for thickness/height), possibly Mohs scale for hardness.
centimeters is the best for measuring the length of a pencil. meters could be used but not as convenient. microns (1 millionth of a meter) is definitely too small.
The average size for a pen is about 5.5 inches, for a pencil is about 7 inches, for a ruler is about 12 inches, for a rubber (eraser) is about 2 inches, and for a sharpener is about 2 inches in length.

Centimetres, millimetres or inches would be most appropriate for measuring the length of a ruler.
Pencils are made in various lengths. My HB pencil measures 7 inches.
seven inches
The pencil length is usually around 20 centimeters.

grams (for their mass), centimetres (for length), millimetres (for thickness/height), possibly Mohs scale for hardness.
If you have to measure the pencil to a couple decimal places i would suggest a micrometer and a dial caliper.
The length of a pencil is arround 18 centimeters or 7 inches. But if it has been sharpened, it grows shorter.
Depends on how long the pencil is.
