Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is 1/72. A font is often measured in pt (points). Points dictate the height of the lettering. There are approximately 72 points in one inch or 2.54 cm.
Detailed explanation-2: -A unit is a way of measuring font size, line height, line length, margins, or virtually anything in the practice of typography. Multiple units are in existence, including many historic ones, but points, pixels, and ems (or rems) are the units most relevant to today’s digital typesetting needs.
