Question

A ruler measures length to the nearest 0.25 inches. Which is the most

appropriate way to report length using this ruler?

Answer 1

Answer: 14.25

Explanation:

Because 14 and 10 inches don't indicate that the ruler can measure to the nearest 0.25 inches. They indicate that the ruler can measure to the nearest inch.

14.2598 inches cannot be measured with this ruler.

That leaves 14.25.

Hope this helped.
