6mm = almost 1/4 inch. 7mm = almost 9/32 inch (= a bit over 1/4 inch) 8mm = 5/16 inch. 9mm = almost 3/8 inch.
Also shown is a 2-centimeter (cm) ruler that shows 10 mm is equal to 1 cm.
8mm is equal to 5/16 inch. 9mm is almost 3/8 inch.
A millimeter is about the thickness of a plastic id card (or credit card). Or about the thickness of 10 sheets of paper on top of each other. This is a very small measurement!
Tumor sizes are often measured in millimeters (mm) or centimeters. Common items that can be used to show tumor size in mm include: a sharp pencil point (1 mm), a new crayon point (2 mm), a pencil-top eraser (5 mm), a pea (10 mm), a peanut (20 mm), and a lime (50 mm).
Look at the unmarked lines on a metric ruler.
If you look closely, you'll notice that there are 10 millimeters in a centimeter. The medium-sized line at the halfway point between each numbered centimeter measurement represents half a centimeter, or 5 millimeters.
Some examples of objects having about 1 millimeter length areA sharp pencil point and the tip of a sewing needle are approximately 1 mm in length.
The 8mm is a smaller ring diameter, and the 10mm is a bigger ring diameter.
6mm = almost 1/4 inch. 7mm = almost 9/32 inch (= a bit over 1/4 inch) 8mm = 5/16 inch. 9mm = almost 3/8 inch.
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 5 mm to m by multiplying 0.001 by the number of millimeters we have, which is 5. So, the answer to the question "what is 5 millimeters in meters?" is 0.005 m.
Take a length of floss or string and wrap it around the base of your finger. Mark where the floss or string first overlaps with a pen. Stretch the length of string out along a ruler or measuring tape, and take down the length in millimeters.
3mm = almost 1/8 inch. 4mm = 5/32 inch (= a bit over 1/8 inch) 5mm = just over 3/16 inch. 6mm = almost 1/4 inch.
Stage I is divided into 2 substages based on the size of the tumor: Stage IA tumors are 3 centimeters (cm) or less in size. Stage IA tumors may be further divided into IA1, IA2, or IA3 based on the size of the tumor. Stage IB tumors are more than 3 cm but 4 cm or less in size.
T1 (includes T1a, T1b, and T1c): Tumor is 2 cm (3/4 of an inch) or less across. T2: Tumor is more than 2 cm but not more than 5 cm (2 inches) across. T3: Tumor is more than 5 cm across.
Stage IB1: The tumor is 5 mm or more in depth and less than 2 centimeters (cm) wide. A centimeter is roughly equal to the width of a standard pen or pencil.
Some things that are 1mm long are a credit card, an ID card, or 10 sheets of paper stacked on top of one another.
One millimetre is equal to 1000 micrometres or 1000000 nanometres. Since an inch is officially defined as exactly 25.4 millimetres, a millimetre is equal to exactly 5⁄127 (≈ 0.03937) of an inch.
Europeans consider hair with a diameter of 0.04 to 0.06 mm as thin, hair with a diameter between 0.06 and 0.08 mm as normal, and hair with a diameter between 0.08 and 0.1 mm as thick. By comparison with European hair, Asian hair is significantly thicker. The average diameter of Asian hair is 0.08 to 0.12 mm.
