![]() So there is at least fifty thousanths there (0.050), but there's more. ![]() The zero line is to the right, of the second line after the 3. The 3 is to the left of the zero on the vernier, so we'll add that to our number (1.3). Since we know that there is a large number 1 to the left of the image that we can't see (which signifies 1 whole inch), let's write that down (1.) and we'll put the decimal point in. Notice that the line for the 0 (zero) is to the right of the second line after the number 3. It goes up to 25, but the image doesn't show that. THAT, is the vernier part of the caliper. It starts at zero, there's a 5, a 10 and a 15. There's also a scale on the bottom of the picture. That makes each one of those lengths 1/10 of an inch (0.100). And then each amount of space between each 1/10 of an inch has 3 lines - which breaks each 1/10 of an inch into 4 equal pieces. Each one of those little pieces, therefore, is twenty-five thousanths of an inch (0.025) long. Notice that each inch is divided into 10 equal parts with the numbers 1 through 9. In this case we are looking mostly at the area AFTER the first inch mark on the left, and then we see the number 2 on the right, which indicates the second full inch. The big number in the center of the scale is the inch number. Other calipers can be much longer in length. If you noticed, the "handle" of the caliper has a scale that starts from zero on the left and goes up to 6 inches on the right, in this case. This number (0.456) is read as four hundred and fifty-six thousands. A human hair is about 3 thousands of an inch (0.003), give or take a thousanth. The first number to the right of the decimal point is a tenth of an inch (1/10), the second number signifies a hundreth of an inch (1/100), and the third number signifies a thousanth of an inch (1/1000). We are going to be working with the 3 places to the right of the decimal point. Whole numbers (1,2,3, etc.) are followed by a decimal point and an endless number of zeros (2.000000).
