Question

Write down the steps to measure the thickness of a one-rupee coin.

Answer 1

The steps to measure the thickness of a one-rupee coin are-

1. In order to find the thickness of a one-rupee coin, take 10 one-rupee coins and arrange them in a pile.
2. Now measure the height of the stack or the pile using a metre scale.
3. The thickness of one coin can be determined by using the formula:

$\mathbf{\text{Thickness of a coin=}}\frac{\mathbf{T}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{l}\mathbf{}\mathbf{l}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{n}\mathbf{g}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{h}\mathbf{}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{f}\mathbf{}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{h}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{}\mathbf{s}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{c}\mathbf{k}}{\mathbf{N}\mathbf{u}\mathbf{m}\mathbf{b}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{f}\mathbf{}\mathbf{c}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{i}\mathbf{n}\mathbf{s}}$

Thus, the thickness of a one-rupee coin can be calculated.
