5 Tips for Measuring Objects Without Using a Ruler
In everyday life, it is not uncommon for a person to be faced with a situation where they must act quickly. Sometimes you find yourself in situations where you are going to measure objects or distances without having a meter or measuring device? Fortunately, there are some tips to help you using simple and effective techniques.
On some occasions, a credit card or business card can also be used as a rough guide. You can easily measure an object by placing the card next to that object. Just compare the size of the card to the size of the object. For your information, a standard credit card is 8.57 cm long while a standard business card is 8.9 cm long and 5.1 cm wide.
It is possible to get an idea of the length of certain objects by relying on the dimensions of the money notes. It may therefore prove useful to know that: A 20 euro note measures 13.3 x 7.2 cm. A 10 euro note is equivalent to 12.7 x 6.7 cm. A 5 euro note is equivalent to 12 x 6.2 cm If you are in a country using the dollar, note that these notes measure 15.6 x 6.6 cm.
