Based on the given measurements on the ruler (1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/4"), the next measurement to the right on the ruler would be 1 1/2".
Based on the information provided, the next measurement to the right on the ruler would be 1 1/2".
To determine the next measurement on the ruler, we need to observe the pattern in the given measurements. The numbers shown in the image are in increments of 1/4 inch: 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1", and 1 1/4".
By observing the pattern, we can deduce that each subsequent measurement is increasing by 1/4 inch. Therefore, to find the next measurement, we add another 1/4 inch to the last measurement given, which is 1 1/4".
Performing the calculation:
1 1/4" + 1/4" = 1 1/4" + 1/4" = 1 1/2"
Hence, the next measurement to the right on the ruler would be 1 1/2".
