Question

The tolerance for a plank of wood at a factory is 3 yd + 0.002 yd. Which of the following

does NOT fall within the specified tolerance?

Answer 1

3.012 Yards

If that is an answer choice (which I suppose it is, as I have the sme question).

I will explain why:

Firstly the answer choices (A: 2.998, B. 3.001, C: 2.999) all fall below 3.002 yards, even though they aren't enough, it is still within a reasonable range, far closer to 3.002 than 3.012. Therefore, It would be your answer!~
