Answer:

A) 3.6 cm

Explanation:

Accuracy comes down to how precisely you can read the length on a given scale. Here since the smallest increment is centimeter, we can go only one decimal beyond to estimate. This is because you can usually estimate to only one decimal place beyond the closest marks on any measuring.

So, the answer should be 3.6 cm.

Here's a document that explains it well: https://www.auburn.wednet.edu/cms/lib03/WA01001938/Centricity/Domain/1360/1_Uncertainty.pdf

Hope that's right!
