can you show mw what an 8th of a inch looks like on a ruler?

Yes, but I'd expalin it this way.  Make sure you're looking at the edge of the ruler with INCHES, not "mm" for millimeters.\n\nfrom the center tick mark of 0 to the center tick mark of 1 is an inch.  Exactly in the middle is a tick mark that means 1/2 inch.\n\nNow that you've found the 1/2 inch tick, find another tick exactly between 0 and 1/2 inch --that is 1/4 inch.\n\nNow that you have the 1/4 inch tick, find the one exactly halfway between 0 and 1/4 inch --that's 1/8 of an inch.\n\nCHECK: Using 0 and the 1/8 inch tick as a distance, you should be able to count eight segments of the same size between 0 and 1.

if i were u i would look at the meter range on the sticker or online. use only quarters though.

You multiply the decimals by 12 and the whole number will represent the amount on inches. If there are decimals left from the past result, then multiply these decimals by 8 if you are using the units that divide the inch in 8 parts or multiply them by 16 if you are using the units that divide the inch in 16 parts.

do you mean how many centimeters are in a inch?

what are you trying to ask here? How to read a tape measure?  Well, count the number of spaces between the inch markings.  If there are 8 spacings, then the tape measure is in 8ths, if there are 16, then it's in 16ths.\n\nIf it is in 8ths, the 1/4th will be the 2nd line, the 1/8 will be the first line, and the 5/8 will be the 5th line.\n\nIf it is in 16ths, then the 1/4 will be the 4th line, the 1/8 will be the 2nd line and the 5/8 will be the 10th line.

Architects use parts of an inch =1'\nSo if shown a scale 1/8"=1'\nA line that measures 1" the length is 8'\n\nOn the bad side on nearly every floorplan I've seen had an open dimension, usually at one end of a building with a dimension like 8'3&3/4"+/-

Not necessarily. If you can turn them into decimals, sometimes it's easier to compare them.\nFor instance, 4/8 = .5 and 5/9 = .55. Obviously 5/9 is a little larger, and you don't have to do all the math.
