About Length Fraction Calculator

Given either inches or millimeters, calculates the closest inches in fraction form, round up or down.

Why? Well have you ever been at the store and your project needs a 10mm bolt but you can't find it in metric. Take out Length Fraction Calculator type in 10mm and you find that you either need a 3/8" bolt if you want to go smaller or a 7/16" bolt if you need the next size up.

Also great if you have a digital caliper and it gives you numbers like 3.2423".

T70%
by T####:

Perfect and easy. Long press on the fraction at top or numbers at bottom to change accuracy or enter measurement manually(would gave been a good instruction for everyone.) Perfect for quickly converting metric to inch fractions and engineering/decimal inches too. Well done Joe! Thanks.

Y70%
by Y####:

It's great except it could be better. It needs a fine adjustment knob or slide. Also, you should be able to make it jump to scale when you need it because as you can see, it's not to scale.

Y70%
by Y####:

It would be better if there was an input box were you can immediately type a value instead of having to delete the default value first.

Y70%
by Y####:

A Inch, Fractional, decimal and MM Ruler of all rules, you can also press in the number as sliding is hard to line up.

This has been great for my graphing homework from school. And it doesn't contain ads!

D70%
by D####:

Excellent display of measurement

R70%
by R####:

Would rate it 5 star if there were a side scroll button(s) to fine tune the placement of the measurement. It's a little bit frustrating trying to stop it precisely/directly where you want the measurement to be.

K70%
by K####:

Like it. Two suggestions to improve: 1. Have it default to the last-used largest denominator setting. I don't have a tape or ruler beyond 1/32 in precision, so I'm always having to reduce the denominator, each time I use it. Would prefer that it come up with 32 as the largest denominator, until I set it otherwise. 2. Have the fill-in field (for inches or MM) come up empty, instead of "0.0". The zeroes mean I have to backspace over them, then enter the number I want to lookup. Better if blank; then just enter the number, no backspacing. Thanks.

Does exactly what I was looking for. I do woodworking, and my digital caliper doesn't round fractions down. Got tired of trying find scrap paper and doing it manually. Thanks!

Love this app ! This is what i have been looking for for a while. Thank you !

Terrific for converting readings between micrometers. Extremely accurate

Simple and useful, very handy

J70%
by J####:

Easy to use and understand.

C70%
by C####:

The only one that makes fractions easy. What it really needs to be oerfect is a fine scroll or magnifier or something. My big clunky fingers have a hard time zeroing in on exactly where I want to be. On the bright side the competition is nonexistant for an app which does metric to fractions. IE: 5mm wrench is too small, 6mm too big, hmmm maybe english. Do I have 0.22 wrench? Use this app....oh...7/32 will fit. GREAT little app.

Great app for finding imperial drill / hole size conversion, clicking on top fraction allows you to select fraction base. Needs to have this option in about / settings also.

by C####:

Works well if your rusty with your fractions this app will help you re learn

C70%
by C####:

Simple. And just what you needed if you're measuring and cutting material. I found it extremely helpful when dividing a measurement into equal fractions.

C70%
by C####:

Now this is a sweet app should help make reading engineer scale plans much easier

G70%
by G####:

That's what length conversion cacularir supposed to be, not all the other universal converter craps!

Z70%
by Z####:

My first thought is this a conversion chart or an actual ruler to hold things up and measure? Apparently a conversion chart. First thing I did was to check the accuracy of this ruler as most folks would want to do and was not accurate at all. 1 inch came out as 2 and something fractions. Did not see a way to calibrated it. That's why the 4 stars. If it's a conversion chart it should say so in the description then the rating would be higher.

Great app. Even covverts to fractions for you.

D70%
by D####:

Thank you. Apparently, the people under this comment don't know how to use this app...

R70%
by R####:

This app leaves the guessing out. You can see all the numbers, fractions decimals and the ruller. It's fast and easy

R70%
by R####:

I love the way this linear converter operates & works, & the way it presents the solution. Quick & easy so I don't have to pull out my conversion book when converting a decimal hole measurement into a fractional bolt dia. to fit.

M70%

This is a ver useful app

R70%

I make mandolins from American plans but like to convert measurements to metric being British. This app is ideal and it's free!

Add a adjustable tune button, for better control. And this will be great. John S. A/R Machinist

H70%
by H####:

Super annoying that you can't zoom out. Would also be much better if it had settings to round to nearest fraction that is actually on a ruler.

R70%
by R####:

.. Would be nice if the input could be fractional as well. This is the only feature I am missing.

Tnx dev. This is a super work EXCELLENT... no ads too, highly recommended...

R70%
by R####:

Id like to be able to change the ruler type from just this. Convert to eights ruler, sixteenths ruler, and so on. This sometimes gets too detailed and confusing

T70%
by T####:

My boss likes to give me drawings with 3 or more decimal points. This app makes it easier to figure out the fractions in 64th of an inch.
