Question

Which si unit whould be most appropriate for describing the length of a shoe?

Answer 1

Answer:

Milimeters

Explanation:

This kind of question must be checked with everyday elements, in this way we will analyze each of the options until we reach the appropriate:

kilograms can not be because this unit serves to measure the mass not the length.

kilometers (km) is a unit of length, but however it does not serve for this measurement since a km is equivalent to 1000 meters, therefore measuring the length of a shoe with a ruler measuring 1000 meters is very impractical.

milliliters is a unit of volume, and can often be found in the measurement of volume content of liquids, for example 700 milliliters of milk or 1000 milliliters of water. Therefore it is impractical to measure a shoe with a unit of volume.

In this way the way to measure a shoe correctly is using a ruler or measuring instrument graduated in millimeters.
