Here we will explain and show you where 9/16 inches is on a ruler. More specifically, we will give you step-by-step instructions on how to find, and then illustrate, where 9/16 is located on a ruler.
The ruler is divided up into whole inches: 1 inch, 2 inches, 3 inches, and so on. First, we will determine between which two whole inches 9/16 fits. 9 divided by 16 is 0.5625, which is greater than 0 and less than 1. Therefore, 9/16 is located between 0 inches and 1 inch on the ruler.
If you look closely at a ruler, you will see that there are 15 marks between each inch, dividing each inch into 16 equal parts. Below are the lengths to each mark from any whole inch:
Mark 1: 0.0625
Mark 2: 0.125
Mark 3: 0.1875
Mark 4: 0.25
Mark 5: 0.3125
Mark 6: 0.375
Mark 7: 0.4375
Mark 8: 0.5
Mark 9: 0.5625
Mark 10: 0.625
Mark 11: 0.6875
Mark
12: 0.75
Mark 13: 0.8125
Mark 14: 0.875
Mark 15: 0.9375
Looking at the table above, we can locate where the decimal part of 0.5625 fits. The decimal part of 0.5625 fits exactly on Mark 9.
Now we have all the information we need to show you where on our ruler 9/16 is located. 9/16 is located 0 inches and 1 inch on Mark 9. Our illustration below shows 9/16 inches marked with a red pin.
