used as standard unit of length because the size of each hand is different. irst, we would have to choose a particular cubit, since they varied from place to place. A cubit is based on the distance from the elbow to the extended middle finger, and not everyone was built to the same standard dimensions.

Answer:
Cubit is not used as standard unit of length because their sizes vary from person to person. So, two different persons may give different measurements for the same length, which is not desirable for a standard unit.15 Jun 2020
