it is the inches symbol.

An inch (plural: inches; symbol or abbreviation: in or, sometimes, ″ - a double prime) is the name of a unit of length in a number of different systems, including English units, Imperial units, and United States customary units. Its size can vary from system to system. There are 36 inches in a yard and 12 inches in a foot. A corresponding unit of area is the square inch and a corresponding unit of volume is the cubic inch.

The inch is the virtually universal unit of measurement in the United States, and is very commonly used in Canada and the United Kingdom. In the US and the UK, personal heights are expressed in feet and inches by people of all ages. In Canada, personal heights are shown in metric units on official documents such as a person's driver's license.

1 international inch is equal to:

1,000 thou (1 thou is 0.001 inches.)

about 0.08333 feet (1 foot is equal to 12 inches.)

about 0.02778 yards (1 yard is equal to 36 inches.)

2.54 centimetres (1 centimetre is equal to about 0.3937 international inches.)

ps: ...dont forget to choose me as best answer
