    What size hinge should she be looking for?
    ::她应该找什么尺寸的拐弯?

    In this concept, you will learn how to measure lengths to a fraction of an inch.
    ::在这个概念中,你将学会如何测量长度到一英寸的一小部分。

    Measuring Lengths Using Fractions
    ::使用分数衡量长度

    Think about using a ruler, sometimes you will have something that measures evenly, meaning that the item measures in whole inches. More often, you will have an item that does not measure evenly. When this happens, you will need to measure the item to a  fraction  of an inch.
    ::考虑使用标尺时,有时你会有一些能平均测量的东西, 意思是项目用整英寸来测量。 更常见的是, 你将会有一个不平均测量的项目。 当这种情况发生时, 您需要将项目测量到一英寸的一小部分 。

    Each whole inch has sixteen lines. This is because one inch is  16 16  of an inch long. Count four lines, you are at  4 16  or  1 4  (a quarter) of an inch. Count to the eighth line, you are at  8 16  or  1 2  (one half) of an inch. Count to the twelfth line is  12 10  or  3 4  (three fourths) of an inch.
    ::每英寸有16行。 这是因为一英寸是16英寸16英寸长。 数四行, 数四行, 4 16 或 14 (四分之一)英寸。 数第八行, 8 16 或 12 (一半)英寸。 算第十二行, 12 10 或 3 4 (四分之三)英寸。

    Look at this ruler.
    ::看看这尺子

    The arrow is above a line that does not indicate one whole inch. Use fractions to write this fraction of an inch. Count the lines. The arrow is above the eighth line. Write the measurement as a fraction of an inch.
    ::箭头位于一行之上, 并不表示一整英寸。 使用分数来写入一英寸的这个分数。 计数行。 箭头在第八行之上。 将测量写成一英寸的分数 。

    8 16

    Measurements are often written as a fraction in simplest form.  8 16  in simplest form is equal to  1 2 . The measurement is  8 16  or  1 2  inch.
    ::衡量标准往往以最简单的形式作为一个分数来写。 8 16 以最简单的形式写成,等于12。衡量标准为8 16或12英寸。

    Here is an example of a whole number measurement with a fraction of another inch.
    ::下面是整个数字测量的一个例子,用另一英寸的一分之一。

    This measurement is 1 inch and a fraction of another inch. The arrow is above  1 12 16 12 16  in simplest form is  3 4 . This measurement is  1 12 16  or  1 3 4  inches.
    ::此测量为 1 英寸和 1 英寸 。 箭头高于 1 12 16 . 12 16 。 最简单的形式为 3 4 。 此测量为 1 12 16 或 13 4 英寸 。

    Notice that a ruler has lines with four different lengths. The longest line on the ruler indicates a whole inch. The  second  longest line indicates a half  ( 1 2 )  inch. The line shorter than the half inch line marks a quarter  ( 1 4 )  inch. Some rulers have marks for an eighth  ( 1 8 )  of an inch, like the image below.
    ::注意标尺有四个不同长度的线条。 标尺上最长的线条表示整英寸。 第二长的线条表示半( 12) 英寸。 短于半英寸线的线条表示四分之一( 14) 英寸。 有些标尺有八( 18) 英寸的标记, 如下面的图像 。
