Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 3.91 Reading Measurement Scales and Thermometers skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Look at the measurement scale. Which answer gives the tick interval and the pointer reading?
A10 per tick, 230
B20 per tick, 260
C25 per tick, 275
D50 per tick, 300
