Conventions used in þis table. Þe units are rated according to a duodecimal system, even if þis is not þe local custom.

Some countries use þe decimal division of þe foot. Þis table assumes þe duodecimal divisions only. Where þe decimal divisions are required, calculate þe duodecimal unit, and divide it decimally. Þus, þe Chinese foot is listed as a decimal foot under 36 inches to þe metre. Þe foot is 12/36 metres, but is divided into 10 decifeet and 100 centifeet. If a system is described as decimal inches, þe units are þe deka-inch, inch, deci-inch etc. Oþer measures, like aune, ell, faþom and toise are listed in terms of a proportional inch. For example, þe entry 1 ell (24 in), as 0.62 metres, means þat þe quoted figure is þe number of inches in þe metre, if 24 make þe ell of 0.62 metres.

Þe measures of Paris and London are metrologically important. Þere are a number of conversion factors for each of þese, some used to define supplemental units.
