Maths is important to get what the frick a 7/16 inch unit is supposed to be and how to calculate just about anything with it.
Maths may be important, but figuring out what's bigger, 7/16 vs 3/8, is a stupid fucking system when metric exists.
Centimeters/millimeters: "6 is bigger than 5 is bigger than 4"
Inches: "I don't fuckin know what's bigger, 5/16 or 3/8? How about 7/32? Fuck you, I'm just making it all up."
Even more ridiculous is that they could have just made everything one fraction. Like 1/10 then 2/10 then 3/10. This crap is over complicated by it's own rules.
What if you need to represent something between 1/10th and 2/10ths without misrepresenting your precision?
Fractional measurements are way better for indicating precision than decimal. With decimal precision can only be increased or decreased by a power of 10, whereas fractional can be any level of precision - just represent the precision in the denominator.
Congrats were still useing fractions for a wrench. That still goes 10x.

3/8 is 6/16. 7/16 is bigger. That's like 3rd grade math.
What's that in hogs hair lengths?
how would not know what bigger
Theres 2 pretty good reasons why I only ever have 1 fractional wrench at a time. One so I can just move up the line until one fits and the other reason is that fractional is not used in modern cars. I only ever need to break my imperial set out when I'm working on a antique car.
