Bert and Joe are right, but think. Think 1/8" per foot, or, if you look at a level, and the top bubble when the level is horizontal, you'll probably see the middle (home) and a couple of lines on each side, when laying the level on the pipe the quick reference would be the first line outside of home.
Consequently, the second line outside of home is 1/4" per foot.

That means the plumbing pipe slopes 1 foot for every 100 feet of length. This is usually critical for drain or sewer lines. Pressure lines like hot and cold water don't need a slope.

It means a one foot drop per 100 feet of pipe. Or one inch per 100 inches, etc.
