Metric is a product of the French Revolution, as well as decimal currency like cents. Some decimalization from the French Revolution didn’t catch on widely, like gradians for measuring angles or decimal minutes, hours, and weeks. The imperial units were standardized by various monarchies (hence the name).
It’s not compatible with their other units. E.g. 1 tesla = 1 Ns/Cm, but imperial uses poundfeet instead of newtons and feet instead of meters. Dimensional analysis with incompatible units is folly.
What’s weirder is that the bottom two are 6 feef apart
Americans will use anything but metric
I wouldn’t touch the metric system with a 10-foof pole.
That made me laugh so hard I woke up my cats.
The correct answer is 2.58 metres.
What’s metric? Is that some kind of myth the Europeans invented? No thanks, Monarchists, I love my feets and freedoms.

We use decimal inches in machine shops, that’s a metric system.
SI though, that’s what gets people mad.
Except for some reason you didn’t come up with your own units for:
Is adapting a standard instead of making your own something negative?

Or analytical geometry, for that matter.

This actually makes the problem solvable
edit: in 2-D. Even without the typo it was solvable in 3-D.
