About the mile and the centimeter

The mile

The international (statute) mile (mi) is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems, defined as exactly 1609.344 meters (5,280 feet). It is the standard unit for road distances in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Liberia. Do not confuse it with the nautical mile, which is 1852 m.

The centimeter

The centimeter (cm) is a metric unit of length equal to one-hundredth of a meter. It is the most common everyday unit outside the US for measuring small to mid-sized objects, body dimensions like height when stated in metric, fabric, and TV diagonals. A US quarter coin is about 2.4 cm wide; an average adult thumb is around 6 cm long.
