"proportionate" could also be used here I think.

smaller, or shorter - not small

omit mathematically. Moreover 9mm > 0.03in by about 15%. "Since 3/100 inches is only slightly small than 9mms the overall effect was still in proportion". Use present tense because it was and remains smaller or shorter.

Yes, you would write or say "Three hundredths of an inch was mathematically a little larger than nine millimeters, so overall, the effect was proportional." And yes, it is a normal sentence.
