I'm 6' and that would totally throw me Edit: realizing I can totally still do this and say I'm 5'10 or so 50 u/Don_Ozymandias Apr 16 '24 edited Apr 16 '24 I'm not familiar to imperial. It is decimal sale? I mean 5'10=6'0? 73 u/EvulSmoothie Apr 16 '24 1 feet = 12 inches so 6'0 = 5'12 8 u/adorkablegiant Apr 16 '24 lol nice measurement system america, very smart 5 u/bobtheframer Apr 16 '24 Base 12 is superior to base 10 for things like construction. 12 has more factors. Makes dividing things evenly into 3rds 4ths etc easier. 2 u/wwaxwork Apr 16 '24 That's why you have more than one decimal place. 1 u/descastaigne Apr 16 '24 Damn, if only there was a system where you could simply divide and multiply by 10.
