How do you measure a tape measure?

The tape measure is on, and the one below is centimeters. What's on the centimeter? Is it inch? But I say that an inch online is 3.33 centimeters, that way, an inch above, down to be a little more than three centimeters, but above down only about 2.5 centimeters, an inch is 2.5 or 3.3 ah? Why do people say 3.3 on the Internet and 2.4, 2.5 and so on?

Answer:

Usage method:Press the button on the tape tape at one hand and pull the head of the tape. You can pull it out and measure it.Reading method:1. direct reading methodWhen measuring, the zero mark of the steel tape measure is aligned with the measuring starting point, and the proper tension is applied to directly read the ruler scale corresponding to the measuring stop point.2. indirect reading methodIn some parts of the steel tape can not be used directly, can use the ruler or ruler, the zero alignment measurement, ruler and measurement direction; using tape to get a whole distance scale ruler or square, with more than a long amount of reading method.
A tape measure has markings on it, usually in centimeters. An inch is another unit of measurement
Isn't there a marker on it?
