1. Measuring the Pencil
- The
pencil starts at the
0 cm mark.
- The
tip of the pencil ends at the
8 cm mark.
✔ So, the length of the pencil is:
>
8 cm

2. Measuring the Car
- The
car starts at the
0 cm mark.
- The
back of the car ends at the
5 cm mark.
✔ So, the length of the car is:

✔ Final Answers:
1.
Pencil: 8 cm
2.
Car: 5 cm
