Question

Draw 8 lines that are between 1 inch and 3 inches long. Measure each line to the nearest fourth inch, and make a line plot.

Answer 1

The length of the line is the difference between the endpoints of the line

The length of each line to the nearest fourth inch is 0.25 inch

How to measure the length of each line

The length of the horizontal line is given as:

Length = 2 inches

This is calculated as:

Length = 3 inches - 1 inch

Length = 2 inches

8 lines are to be drawn between the 1 inch and 3 inches point.

So, the length (l) of each line is:

$l = \frac{2\ inches}{8}$

Simplify the fraction

$l = \frac{1\ inches}{4}$

Divide

$l = 0.25\ inch$

Hence, the length of each line to the nearest fourth inch is 0.25 inch
