To read the measuring cylinder we first count the number of smaller divisions between the marked interval. In this case it is 10 intervals. The marked intervals are 60 and 80, therefore between these values we have 20. We will now divide the 20 by the 10 intervalswhich is equal to 2. Now each interval has a numerical value of 2. We read from the bottom of the meniscus. The meniscus is ttouching the 5th line and so we say 5 x 2=10, we add this to 60.

Answer: 60+10= 70,
