How would I measure 13 3/4 degrees if only reads to one decimal?

That is easy. 13 3\4=13.75. There are many places o. Google to find unit conversion.

The tool will read 13-3/4 or 13.75 degrees since it reads in .05 degree increments. It should be noted that even rounded to the nearest tenth of a degree the amount you would be off is less than the tools advertised accuracy of +/- .1 degree (If I remember correctly). Rounded .05 degree or 3 minutes would equate to about .010" over the length of the tool.

On my original review I might not have said that it does go to hundredths at a half degree. So it wii read 13.75 degrees or 13.8. With a little interpolation it is closer than I can mark with a pencil. Hope this helped. I used mine this morning measuring angle on a soffit. It's a mighty useful tool.

.125 = 1/8, .25=1/4, .5= 1/2 .75=3/4 There are conversion calculators like this one (http://www.onlineconversion.com/fractions.php) that help do the math, or your could go back to school :-) and this time pay attention to the teacher. Hope you smiled and hope this helped

The only thing you can do is to go to 13.8 degrees and you are only 5/100 of a degree off.

Second thought,,,, if you scribed the angle at two readings of 13.7 than at 13.8, using dividers bisect between those two lines you will end up with a 13.75 angle

Look at the display it reads to three so you could get close @ 13.7 or 13.8

Its, ok. Dont worry, that happened to me too. Over the DEL bottom, there is one with the symbol S &lt;-&gt; D, When you tap that one it gives you the option for your answer, either fraction or decimal. Hoping I helped you.

Sure is! I think the decimal needs to move to the left once and thats probably a rough estimate. Nice piece though

As far as I know the one I have is Celsius only. I just printed out a conversion chart.

According to the specs on Amazon, the resolution is 0.05 degrees. I have the unit and the resolution is actually 0.1 degrees because there is only one decimal place on the display. The Amazon specs say the accuracy is +/- 0.2 degrees. I have no way to check this. I have checked the repeatability by putting the unit on an off a fixed surface. I've done this 5 times in a row with no change in the reading.

Yes, it does when it displays in feet and inches or just inches. The fractions are typical tape measure fractions - 1/2, 1/4 ... 1/32. When it displays in meters, it uses decimals. The "m/ft" button changes between those modes.

This seems to be a very well made tool and is graduated to allow readings down to 0.0001". I am not sure I would trust it to be real accurate to such dimensions. Your touch would have to be better than mine to feel confident to readings less than 0.001. - Chet

1.4, 1.7, and 2.0. But you'll need a magnifying glass to read the #'s, even then it's almost impossible to see whats printed in the needles.

I don't know. I only but bars that say 1". I don't know about 1-1/8... 1" works perfectly

I get 1 9/16 by 1 3/8 by 3/16. That's as accurate as I can be with a ruler.

No, it's 2 decimal places but the 100ths place is measured only by .05 degrees... so as an example, it will read 33.30 or 33.35 or 33.40

It looks suspiciously like a decimal point is moved for some reason. I am not a Dr. but I'd wonder if 161/109 were valid reading (not one that you want, I'm only guessing at the concidence.

You are not going to find any kind of digital readout that shows fractions. But 1.5 is the same as 1-1/2. You just need to convert to decimals. I.e., 3/4 = .75 and 1/3 = .33.

Take the Fahrenheit reading. Subtract 32. Multiply by 5. Divide by 9. Very easy to do on a calculator. Takes only a few seconds! (If you do not have an RPN ["Reverse Polish Notation"] calculator, be sure to hit the = button after each operation so it does that operation before the next operation! The exact equation, for a Fahrenheit reading of F is: "{F - 32} X 5 / 9" where "/" is "divide"})

Yes it does inches in fractions it decimal as well as metric. I don't have it handy but I'm pretty sure it's hundredths of a mm.

yes, the decimal is in the wrong place..... it is a little thing 4.13 x 1.2 x4.13 is more like it..... although i did check another website and they how the dimensions as 4.72 x 1.2 x 4.72 but both are close enough.

It measured out at .262, which is slightly thicker that 1/4 inch. (1/4 inch would be .250)
