Inches, feet, yards, miles

The inch has been exactly 2.54 cm since 1959; 12 inches make a foot, 3 feet a yard and 1,760 yards a mile of 1.609 km. The US and UK still use them for heights (5 ft 10 in is 178 cm), road distances and speed limits, and the inch survives everywhere in screen sizes, wheel rims and pipe threads. Five miles are almost exactly eight kilometres, a handy road-sign rule.
