Complete brainlet here

Why do rulers have these things? In six not in tens or fives or something that makes sense?

Or is it a nine? Please someone explain it to me I’ve been struggling as an adult retard

>>	Anonymous Fri Dec 28 01:58:07 2018 No.10248425 Count the 'things' carefully. For the first one, then count the next one. Hopefully you'll get the right number before the end of the ruler.

He specifically asks if they are in fractions, which is something you do with imperial, not with metric. That narrows down the countries.
>decimals
So, tens.

Good lord, why do some people get their "facts" from memes?
Turns out what actually happened takes more text than a <1 megapixel jpeg can hold, who knew?

Besides, almost every country on Earth uses a mix of metric and local, traditional units, just like the U.S.
