Looking up things in BOS 3 is a challenge! There are examples sm - nm

Posted: Feb 24th, 2019 - 10:59 am In Reply to: 4 x 4 cm versus 4 cm x 4 cm - Sun

on page 278 under Section 12.1.7 Punctuation that says "2 x 2 cm" and on page 279 under 12.1.10 Multiplication of Numbers of "2 x 8 cm" but I'm not able to quickly find the rule for it. I've looked for it under measurements, pathology specimen, etc., and not finding it but I'm pressed for time at the moment. Gotta go play Bingo!

If you could ask your QA what page s/he found that reference in BOS 3, I'll be happy to look it up for you. I think the rule may have been in BOS 2, though.
