0.1 mm caliper reading 34.7 mm

An example figure from the Length Reading Generator.

A caliper with a 0.1 mm sliding scale holding a cylinder, reading 34.7 mm, with a close-up strip of its scales — A caliper whose sliding scale has 10 divisions over 9 mm, so it reads to 0.1 mm, holding an upright cylinder across its diameter. The close-up strip shows the sliding scale’s zero between 34 and 35 mm on the main scale and its 7th mark lined up with a main-scale mark, so the reading is 34.7 mm.
