Question

If the distance marked on centimeter scale is from 2.5 to 4.5,

then the line segment is how many cm long?

Answer 1

2.0cm long

Explanation:

If the distance marked on a centimeter scale is from 2.5 to 4.5, then the final destination is 4.5cm and the initial point = 2.5.

Distance between the two points will give us the length of the line segment.

Distance between the two points = final point - initial point

Distance between the two points = 4.5 - 2.5

Distance between the two points = 2.0 cm

Hence the line segment is 2.0cm long
