Final answer:

The volume measurement should be recorded to one decimal place, in mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

To measure the volume of liquid in a graduated cylinder, you should make a reading at the bottom of the meniscus, the lowest point on the curved surface of the liquid.

In the case of the graduated cylinder described, the scale has 1-mL divisions, so the volume measurement should be recorded to the nearest 0.1 mL.

Therefore, the volume measurement should be recorded to one decimal place, in mL.
