Question

A cloth merchant uses a metre rod for measuring the length of the cloth piece, while a tailor uses a tape for measurement.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

A tailor uses a tape, whereas a cloth merchant uses a metre rod because for measuring the length of an object, we have to choose a suitable measuring instrument. It is impossible for a tailor to measure the size of your chest using a metre scale. So, he needs a flexible device for this. That’s why Measuring tape is more suitable for this kind of measurement.
