View full question & answer→There are 10 divisions between 6.1 and 6.6 , so each division is a tenth part of 0.5 or $\frac{5}{10}$, i.e., $\frac{5}{100}=0.05$ units. Therefore, the first division after 6.1 , denoted by V, represents the number 6.15 , while the fourth division, denoted by V, represents the number 6.3 , the seventh division, denoted by 'w', represents the number 6.45 , and the first division after 6.6 , denoted by ' x' represents the number 6.65 .
