Answer:

0.75 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The 1 inch measure has 16 divisions.

Find the measure of 1 division as: 1/16 = 0.0625 in

The side length of the square has 12 divisions

1 division = 0.0625 in

12 divisions = 0.0625*12 = 0.75 in

The correct answer choice is A. 0.75.

Answer choices B is incorrect because from the diagram, it is clear that the side length of this square is less that 1 inch.

Answer choice C is incorrect because 0.34 in will mean 0.34/0.0625 divisions. This is 5 divisions, yet the square side length covers 12 divisions.
