About Mile (mi)

An imperial unit of length equal to 5,280 feet (1,609.344 meters). The statute mile evolved from the Roman mille passus ("a thousand paces") and remains the primary distance unit for roads, running, and real estate in the United States and United Kingdom. Marathon distance is 26.219 miles; US speed limits are in miles per hour; American geography — state sizes, road trips, fuel economy — is almost always expressed in miles. Converting to kilometers is one of the most common length conversions on the internet.

About Centimeter (cm)

A metric unit of length equal to one hundredth of a meter (0.01 m), roughly the width of a standard pencil. Centimeters are the everyday metric-world unit for body measurements, clothing sizes, household items, and school rulers. Height, waist, and most paper sizes are expressed in centimeters in Europe, Asia, and Australia. In scientific work it bridges the gap between the too-small millimeter and the too-large meter for human-scale objects.
