Richard buys a carton of oranges and measures the weight of 1 orange in the carton Which measure gives the most precise weight?

9514 1404 393

  (a)  0.8 ounces (most precision)

  (b)  8 ounces (best precision for likely weight of an orange)

Step-by-step explanation:

The most precision is obtained by using the smallest unit of measure. On this list, the smallest unit of measure is a tenth of an ounce. That is, the measure 0.8 ounces has the most precision.

It is unlikely that the weight of one orange will be 0.8 ounces. The smallest unit used in a measurement likely to correspond to the weight of an orange is 1 ounce, used in the measurement 8 ounces. That measurement has better precision than 0.8 pounds, because 0.1 pounds corresponds to 1.6 ounces.

chad should not have included the values (1, 2) and (3, 6) because that would mean he only had half a healing card.
