### **Frequently Asked Questions**

#### How do I read a ruler?

A traditional ruler has standard measurements across one side and metric measurements across the other. For standard measurements, the longest marks represent an inch. Smaller marks are divided into 16th, 8th, quarter, and ½ inch sections. For metric measurements, the longest marks represent a centimeter. Smaller marks are used to represent millimeters, which are each a tenth of a centimeter.
