Measuring Segments
For each question, the unit is represented by the large tick marks with whole numbers.
- Find the length of this segment to the nearest
of a unit. A line segment measured by a ruler above it. The ruler has units represented by large tick marks with whole numbers from 1 to 6. Each unit is evenly divided into 8 parts. The segment measures 4 and the fraction 5 over 8 units. - Find the length of this segment to the nearest 0.1 of a unit.
A line segment measured by a ruler above it. The ruler has units represented by large tick marks with whole numbers from 1 to 5. Each unit is evenly divided into 10 parts. The segment measures 4 and the fraction 7 over 10 units.
- Estimate the length of this segment to the nearest
of a unit. A line segment measured by a ruler above it. The ruler has units represented by large tick marks with whole numbers from 1 to 5. The segment measures near 3 and the fraction 3 over 4 units. -
Estimate the length of the segment in the prior question to the nearest 0.1 of a unit.
