if a drawing is in inches it does not have leading zeros on the units ex .162 instead of 0.162
if a drawing is in millimeters the dimensions will have leading Zeros ex 0.875
it is important to know which units you are using otherwise you could build a component the wrong dimensions say a tube that's 1mm long and a 5mm diameter instead of a 1in length and a 5 inch diameter
also, most engineering drawings will specify the unit in the title block to eliminate confusion
