Question

question 7 (1 point) what is this measurement? image of a ruler with a red arrow pointing to a position, and options: a 1.7 inches, b 1.7 cm, c 1 1/7 inches, d 1.5 cm

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the scale unit

The ruler is marked in centimetres, so the measurement unit should be cm, eliminating options with inches (a, c).

Step2: Read the ruler

The arrow points to a position 1.7 cm from the 0 mark (since between 1 and 2 cm, there are 10 small divisions, each 0.1 cm, so 1 + 0.7 = 1.7 cm). Option d is 1.5 cm, which is incorrect.

Answer:

b. 1.7 cm
