Horse hands measurement
edit- Template:Hands https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Hands
- Alt hands template for fractional heights: {{hands|15.1 + 1/2}} becomes 15.1 1⁄2 hands (61.5 inches, 156 cm)
- 14.1 1⁄2 hands (57.5 inches, 146 cm) → 14.1 1⁄2 hands (57.5 inches, 146 cm)
- Convert cm first: {{convert|77|to|88|cm|hand in|2}} 77 to 88 centimetres (7.2+1⁄2 to 8.2+1⁄2 hands; 30+1⁄2 to 34+1⁄2 in)
- see also Template:Convert/hand and if that doesn't work, look https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template_talk%3AConvert&diff=577894078&oldid=577889222 here].
