It looks like you've uploaded an image titled
"Measuring Mass Practice" that contains a worksheet with rulers and objects placed on them to measure mass. Since I can't view images directly, I’ll guide you through how to solve this type of problem based on typical formats.
Common Format of This Type of Worksheet:
- The worksheet usually shows a
balance scale or
ruler marked in grams (g).
- Objects are placed on the scale or ruler, and you must read the measurement at the point where the object aligns with the scale.
- The scale is typically marked in increments (e.g., 10g, 50g, 100g), and sometimes has smaller tick marks for precision.
---
Step-by-Step Solution Guide:
#### 1.
Identify the Scale:
- Look at the markings on the ruler or balance.
- Determine what each major tick mark represents (e.g., every 10g).
- If there are smaller ticks between major ones, determine their value (e.g., if 10g is divided into 2 parts, each part is 5g).
#### 2.
Locate the Object's Position:
- Find where the object aligns on the scale.
- Note the nearest major tick mark below the object.
- Count how many small ticks beyond that mark the object extends.
#### 3.
Calculate the Mass:
- Add the value of the major tick to the value of the small ticks.
- Example: If the object is at the 4th small tick after 50g, and each tick is 5g, then:
$$
50g + (4 \times 5g) = 70g
$$
#### 4.
Answer the Questions:
- The worksheet likely asks:
- "What is the mass of the object?"
- "Which object is heavier?"
- Or fill-in-the-blank statements.

Example Scenario (Hypothetical):
Suppose one ruler shows:
- A triangle pointing to the 60g mark.
- Another triangle points between 80g and 90g, at the third tick (each tick = 5g).
- So: $80g + (3 \times 5g) = 95g$
Then the answers would be:
- First object:
60g
- Second object:
95g
---
Final Answer Format (if it’s a fill-in-the-blank):
> 1. The mass of the first object is
60 grams.
> 2. The mass of the second object is
95 grams.

If you can describe the image (e.g., “There are two triangles on a ruler from 0 to 100g, one at 40g and one at 75g”), I can give you the exact answer.
