      Good to know

      The inch is defined as exactly 2.54 centimeters, and the foot as exactly 0.3048 meters, so conversions between metric and US customary lengths are exact rather than approximate.

      A nautical mile is exactly 1,852 meters. It is used at sea and in aviation and is about 15% longer than a statute mile.
