How do 6 figure grids work?

Things to remember:

You now have a six figure grid reference.

What is the difference between four-figure and six figure grid references?

What is the difference between four-figure and six-figure grid references?

Six-figure grid references are much more accurate than four-figure grid references.

Are 6 figure grids accurate?

Six figure grid references are commonly used for topographic maps with a scale of 1:50,000. On a 6-figure grid reference the last digit refers to a tenth of the distance between the 1km grid reference lines, so the reference is only accurate to within 100 metres.

What is a 6 figure salary?

How do you get a six grid reference?

After writing three digits of eastings, write two digit of the last northings and then from the bottom of the last northing, measure the distance to the object with a ruler in mm. Then divide that resultant distance by 2. This will give you the sixth number of the grid.

Is $75000 a good salary?

When giving a grid reference which should be given first?

As we already said, when giving a four-figure grid reference, always give the eastings number first and the northings number second. An easy way to remember this is to keep in mind the letters HV (High Voltage), that is horizontal reading first followed the vertical reading.
