Answer:
0.75 in
Explanation:
The 1 inch measure has 16 divisions.
Find the measure of 1 division as: 1/16 = 0.0625 in
The side length of the square has 12 divisions
1 division = 0.0625 in
12 divisions = 0.0625*12 = 0.75 in
The correct answer choice is A. 0.75.
Answer choices B is incorrect because from the diagram, it is clear that the side length of this square is less that 1 inch.
Answer choice C is incorrect because 0.34 in will mean 0.34/0.0625 divisions. This is 5 divisions, yet the square side length covers 12 divisions.
