To know your pants size number, start by measuring your waist with a measuring tape. Wrap the tape around your waist, where you usually wear your pants, keeping it snug but not tight. Next, measure your inseam by taking the distance from your crotch down to where you want your pants to end. Most brands use inches and have charts correlating these measurements to the pants size. Always compare your measurements to the specific brand's sizing chart since sizes can vary between brands.
