Solution

The correct option is D P<S<R<Q
We know that the length of an object is the difference in the readings of its ends.
Therefore,
Length of P = $3.0 - 1.0 = 2.0 c m$
Length of Q = $6.5 - 3.8 = 2.7 c m$
Length of R = $10.0 - 7.5 = 2.5 c m$
Length of S = $13.3 - 11.0 = 2.3 c m$
So, the correct ascending order of their length will be P<S<R<Q.
