Lets try to find out how many millimeters are in 1 inch and then we can find how much are in ¼ inch. 

We know that 1 inch = 25.4mm

Lets try and create a simple ratio in order to find out how many mm are ¼inch. Lets call this unknown value x.

If 1 inch is 24.5mm.

Then ¼inch is X mm.

Lets cross multiply, so x times 1 equal to ¼ times 24.5mm.

x=¼ * 24.5

x= 24.5/4

x=6.125mm
