Could someone help me get a clear understanding about this:

I understand that when multiple routes exist in a routing table, the route
with the "longest match" will be chosen.  Administrative Distance will only
breaks a tie between two routes of equal length.

So, what is the "metric" for? When will a router uses "metric" to select a
route e.g. to select a route via Router A since it is metrically closer than
Router B to Router C.

Thanks Everyone in advance.
