Answer:

The answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

Precision generally means been accurate (and can be loosely interpreted to mean been exact). Length is averagely measured in meters. However, in order to get the actual length of a substance using a tape, millimeters give the most accurate length (of all the options) as it provides the length to the smallest details (of all the options provided). The illustration below shows the relationship between millimeters and the rest of the options.

while 1 kilometer = 1000 meters

1 meter = 100 centimeters

1 centimeter = 10 millimeters

From the relationship above, millimeters is clearly the most precise of all the options provided.
