    3,635 mm is not 3.635 mm. If you want it’s 3.635 meters.

      I had to double check after I read your comment. Another benefit of metric. Even when you’re wrong there’s a good chance you’re right.

      Depends on the system and where you live. In hand writing, i would use 3,635 mm for decimals. However, on computer 3’635 mm to write 3.635 m.

      Personally, I like the high comma as a thousands separator as it removes possibilities to misread the number. But not everyone will agree.
