Final answer:

The FLACC Scale uses a numeric scale for children aged 4-7 to assess pain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The FLACC Scale (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) is an assessment tool used to measure pain in children who cannot effectively communicate their level of pain. For children aged 4-7, the FLACC Scale uses a numeric scale. The child's behaviors in each category (face, legs, activity, cry, consolability) are observed and assigned a score from 0 to 2. The scores are then added together to determine the overall pain level.
