To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 centimeters and 100 centimeters (10 −1 meter and 1 meter). Conversions 10 centimeters (abbreviated to 10 cm) is equal to:
The basic unit of length in the imperial and U.S. customary systems is the yard, defined as exactly 0.9144 m by international treaty in 1959. [2] [10] Common imperial units and U.S. customary units of length include: [11] thou or mil (1 ⁄ 1000 of an inch) inch (25.4 mm) foot (12 inches, 0.3048 m) yard (3 feet, 0.9144 m)
A 50 m × 25 m (164 ft × 82 ft) Olympic swimming pool, built to the FR3 minimum depth of 2 metres (6.6 ft) would hold 2,500 m 3 (660,000 US gal). The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) defines the Olympic swimming pool as 1 million litres, which is the approximate volume of the smaller FR2 pool.
{{convert|123|cuyd|m3+board feet}} → 123 cubic yards (94 m 3; 40,000 board feet) The following converts a pressure to four output units. The precision is 1 (1 decimal place), and units are abbreviated and linked.
British media also frequently uses the football pitch for equivalent purposes, although soccer pitches are not of a fixed size, but instead can vary within defined limits (100–130 yd or 91.4–118.9 m long, and 50–100 yd or 45.7–91.4 m wide, giving an area of 5,000 to 13,000 sq yd or 4,181 to 10,870 m 2).

The shaku had been standardized as 30.3 cm (11.93 in) since 1891. [5] This means that there are about 3.3 shaku (10 ⁄ 33) to one meter. [6] [7]This definition was established by Meiji government law; until then, even though the unit was given the same name, its length varied depending on the era.
