I assume that is how people that are only familiar with metric view the imperial measurement system. 1/64, 1/32, 1/16, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/1

I assume that is how people that are only familiar with metric view the imperial measurement system. 1/64, 1/32, 1/16, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 11/16, etc. for inches. 1 inch = 1/12 foot, 2 inches = 1/6 foot, etc. I use all of these so often on woodworking that it is super easy for me. I presume that same was for money in the pre-digital age.
