Facts about Mile
Basic facts: The mile, sometimes the international mile [statute mile] to distinguish it from other miles, is the US customary and British imperial unit of distance [symbol: mi or m]. It is currently defined as 1,760 yards, 5,280 feet, or exactly 1,609.344 meters.
History: A mile is an English unit [predecessor of Imperial units and United States Customary Unit] of length. Before the widespread adoption of the metric system, the use of the abbreviation “m” for a mile was common; “mi” became the preferred abbreviation in order to avoid confusion between miles and meters, it happened after the adoption of the metric system. The definition of a mile as 5,280 feet [or 8 furlongs], sometimes referred to as the statute mile, land mile, or international mile, which differs from the Roman mile of 5,000 feet, developed back in 1593, due to the significance of the furlong in England. There also exist a number of units based on, or closely related to, the Roman mile, including the nautical mile [1.852 km exactly], Chinese mile [500m exactly], and Italian mile [approx. 1.852 km].
Use: Regardless of the fact that most countries have adopted the metric system and use kilometers, rather than miles, to express land distance, the mile is still mostly used in countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Liberia, and Myanmar, as well as some other countries which are territories either of UK or US or have historical connections with either country.
Facts about Inch
Basic facts: An inch is a unit of length in the United States customary and British imperial systems of measurement [symbol: in]. It is equivalent to 1/36 yard or 1/12 of a foot, meaning there are 36 inches in a yard and 12 inches in a foot. In 1959, an inch was defined to be equal to exactly 25.4 millimeters.
History: The word “inch” is derived from the Roman uncia “twelfth”, the term “inch” is also sometimes used to translate similar units in other measurement systems, usually viewed as deriving from the width of the human thumb, where the length was obtained from averaging the width of 3 thumbs: a small, a medium, and a large one.
In the past, there have been a number of various standards for the inch with the present definition being based on the international yard. One of the earlier definitions of the inch was based on barleycorns [where an inch was equivalent to the length of 3 grains of dry, round barley placed end-to-end].
Use: The inch is mainly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. It is also sometimes used in Japan and in other countries as well, in relation to electronic parts, such as the size of display screens.
