Detailed Solution

Elle was a Measuring Unit.
To sell his products in 1833, a merchant travelling from Hamburg to Nuremberg would have had to walk through 11 customs checkpoints and pay a fee of almost 5% at each one. Frequently, duties were assessed based on the size or weight of the products. This required laborious calculation because each location has its weights and measures system. For instance, the Elle, a cloth measure, had a different meaning in every region. An ounce of fabric purchased in Frankfurt would yield 54.7 cm of cloth, 55.1 cm in Mainz, 65.6 cm in Nuremberg, and 53.5 cm in Freiburg.
