Divide 1 by each...answer 1/5000th or look at it this way, which is longer? 2000 inches or 5000 inches?
My turn: which weighs more? A ton of feathers or a ton of lead?

5000th part of an inch is more precise (Accurate) than 2000th part of inch because when we divide an inch into 5000 parts it is more accurate than dividing or parting an inch into 2000 parts.

5000th of an inch is more percise, reason is 1 peice of 5000 is smaller and 1 peice of 1000, all things equal.

1/5000th of an inch---the smaller quantity means more precision.

5000th. This is because it is smaller than 2000th and therefore more precise.
