This calculator does not judge or label your result. It only helps you understand the numeric relationship between finger length and palm length.
How to Measure Correctly
Finger Length
- Use your middle finger for consistency

The formula is straightforward:
Finger to Palm Ratio = Finger Length รท Palm Length
This means you divide the length of your finger by the length of your palm. The result is a number that shows how long the finger is compared to the palm.
