42.4 centimeters is equal to 16.69 inches.
To put this measurement into context, here are some comparisons to objects of similar size:
– A standard school ruler is typically 30 centimeters long, so 42.4 centimeters is just over 1.5 times the length of a ruler.
– The average size of a newborn baby’s head is about 36 centimeters, so 42.4 centimeters is just slightly larger than a newborn baby’s head.
– The size of an average dinner plate is around 28-30 centimeters, so 42.4 centimeters is almost half the diameter of a dinner plate.
– The screen of a medium-sized laptop is around 35-40 centimeters, so 42.4 centimeters is slightly larger than a laptop screen.
– An adult male hand from wrist to longest fingertip is approximately 19 centimeters, so 42.4 centimeters is more than double the length of an average hand.
