Which measurement is the best estimate for the length of a clothespin?
a.9 mm.
b.9 cm.
c.9 m.
d.9 km.
b.9cm
I had this question on my math quiz.
its 9mm:)
9 cm
9mm
To determine the best estimate for the length of a clothespin, we need to consider the usual size of clothespins and the units of measurement.
Clothespins are typically small objects used for hanging clothes, so it is unlikely that they would measure 9 meters (c) or 9 kilometers (d), as those units are much larger.
On the other hand, clothespins are not usually as small as 9 millimeters (a), as that size would be quite tiny for a clothespin.
The most reasonable estimate for the length of a clothespin would therefore be 9 centimeters (b).
Therefore, the best estimate for the length of a clothespin is 9 cm (b).
