120 ± 10 %.
-The unit is separated from the value by a space and placed after the tolerance :
Example: 120 ou 120 ± 12 except for angle degrees : 40° ou 40 ± 3°.
-The conversion of some marks is not possible :
Example: thread of a screw : M12x1.75.
-Use decimals to convert precise values :
Example: 190 mm = 7.48 in.
-Write lengths in feet-inches format:
Example: 20 m = 65 ft 7.4 in or in a table 20 (m) = 65-7.4 (ft-in).
