. Fractions Greater than 0 inches CUSTOMARY UNITS OF LENGTH: THE INCH A scaled down one foot ruler. Although most of the world uses metric units for measurement, the United States relies mostly upon customary units of measurement. For measuring length, we use inches, feet, yards, and miles. The Greeks used the width of 6 fingers to find one foot. The Romans adopted the foot from the Greeks and divided it into 2 sections. The picture above is a standard one-foot ruler ( scaled down to fit on the page). The picture below is one inch ( scaled up to illustrate its parts). A very good estimate for one inch is the diameter of a quarter.. The inch is divided into how many equal parts? 2. Write the fractional amount for each part under its marking..
