(iv)     Salim measured it using a 5 m long measuring tape.

Which one of them would get the most accurate length?

Give reason for your answer.

Answers (1)

Salim measured it using a 5 m long measuring tape. By using a 5 m long measuring tape which is longer than the table, Salim would get the most accurate length. So, he can measure the length of the table in one go accurately.
