Converting from Inches (in) to [Hist.rus.] Arshin (арш)

What is Inches (in)

Inches (in) are a common unit of length primarily used in the United States and other countries that follow the imperial system. One inch is defined as exactly 2.54 centimeters, facilitating its use in a wide range of applications, from measuring height to specifying dimensions in construction and manufacturing. The inch is further divided into smaller units such as half-inches and eighths of an inch, making it a versatile unit in everyday measurements.

What is [Hist.rus.] Arshin (арш)

The term “arshin” is derived from the Persian word “arš,” which means a measure of length. It was traditionally used in trade and land measurement, although it has largely fallen out of regular use in favor of the metric system.
