Answer:

E/K) 3.001

Explanation:

If we plug in each diameter and see if it is less than or equal to 0.001

F is way greater than 0.001

B is also greater than 0.001

H is 0.001 which is equal to 0.001 so it is a possible diameter

J is 0 which is less than 0.001 so it is a possible diameter

E is 0.001 which is equal to 0.001 so it is a possible diameter

So 2.999, 3.000, and 3.001 are all possibilities

However the questions asks what is the maximum diameter and 3.001 is the largest
