Answer:
1.75 inches
Explanation:
Looking at that very tiny ruler, between 1 and 2, there are 4 sections divided by the longest sticks. The (eraser?) is on the third line. So, it reaches three of the four available spaces:

You can think of this like money:
- 4 quarters is equal to $1
- 1 quarter is worth 25 cents
- $1 is worth 100 cents
Each space between the lines can be represented by 1 quarter, and 4 spaces make up one inch (or $). The eraser reaches 3 spaces, or 3 quarters. 3 quarters is equal to 75 cents. Therefore, the eraser is 1.75 inches long.
