Rounding the inch to 2.5 cm feels harmless, but the exact value is 2.54 cm, a 1.6% error. Over a 100-inch measurement that is already 4 cm off, and the error compounds in chained calculations. Use the exact definition: 1 inch = 2.54 cm, exactly.
The Scandinavian 'mil' and the English mile sound alike but are completely different distances: a mil is exactly 10 km, while a mile is about 1.609 km. Reading 'miles' as mil makes distances look six times longer than they are. Remember: a mile ≈ 1.6 km, so 60 miles is 96.6 km, not 600 km.
