Depends on long or short cubit. Short cubit was about 44.5 cm and long cubit was about 51.8 cm

"What’s a cubit?"

A little bit more than a henbit but not quite a tribble.

Well, Noah, it's between a squarbit and a tesseractbit.

Want to get it out of my driveway? I gotta get to work!

In Egypt a cubit was the length between the elbow and the tip of the middle finger. About 18 inches. Other measures: a yard was the distance between the nose and the tip of the middle finger about 36 inches an inch was the length of the first knuckle of the thumb. etc
