The Meter (m) or (mtr) is used for everyday measurements like room dimensions (3-4 meters), the height of a door (2 meters), or the length of a car (4-5 meters). It's also used in sports, such as the height of a basketball hoop (3.05 meters). The Hand is the standard unit for measuring horse height worldwide. One hand equals exactly 4 inches. For example, an average riding horse stands about 15-16 hands (60-64 inches) tall at the shoulder. This measurement is taken from the ground to the horse's withers (shoulder ridge).
To convert between Meter (m) and Hand (hh), use the following formulas:
1 Meter (m) = 9.84251968503937 Hand (hh)
1 Hand (hh) = 0.1016 Meter (m)
1 m = 1 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 9.84251968503937 hh
3 m = 3 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 29.52755905511811 hh
5 m = 5 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 49.21259842519685 hh
7 m = 7 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 68.89763779527559 hh
10 m = 10 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 98.4251968503937 hh
20 m = 20 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 196.8503937007874 hh
100 m = 100 * 9.84251968503937 hh = 984.2519685039371 hh
