Since I can't view or analyze images directly, I can't see the actual measurements of the items in your uploaded image. However, I can guide you on
how to solve this problem step by step and help you determine the correct answers based on typical classroom object sizes.

📏 Instructions:
You are asked to measure four school supplies using a ruler shown below each item. You need to measure each item
to the nearest inch.
Here’s how to do it:
1.
Align the left edge of the object with the
0-inch mark on the ruler.
2. Look at where the
right edge of the object ends.
3. Round to the
nearest whole inch (e.g., if it's closer to 3 than to 4, write "3").
Let’s go through each item
based on common sizes and what you’d likely see in such a worksheet:
---
✔ 1. Eraser
- Typical size: About
1 to 2 inches long.
- In most such worksheets, the eraser is drawn to be
about 2 inches.
-
Answer: 2 inches
---
✔ 2. Pencil
- A standard pencil is about
6 to 7 inches long.
- On these worksheets, it's usually drawn to be
around 5 or 6 inches.
- If the tip reaches just past the 5-inch mark but not to 6, it's
5 inches.
- But often, it's drawn to be
6 inches.
-
Answer: 6 inches
---
✔ 3. Marker
- Markers are typically
7 to 8 inches long.
- In drawings like this, it’s often shown as
7 inches.
-
Answer: 7 inches
---
✔ 4. Glue Stick
- Glue sticks are usually
4 to 5 inches long.
- Often drawn to be
about 5 inches.
-
Answer: 5 inches

✔ Final Answers (Likely):
1. Eraser:
2 inches
2. Pencil:
6 inches
3. Marker:
7 inches
4. Glue stick:
5 inches

Note: These are
estimates based on typical illustrations. To get the exact answer, you should:
> - Place the object’s left edge at the 0-inch mark.
> - See where it ends.
> - Round to the nearest inch.
For example:
- If it ends between 4 and 5 but closer to 4 → 4 inches
- If it ends at 5.5 → round to
6 inches

If you can describe where each item ends on the ruler (e.g., “the eraser ends between 1 and 2, closer to 2”), I can give you the exact answer!
