• How to read an inch micrometer: add the sleeve reading to the thimble reading • Each numbered division on the sleeve scale usually equals 0.100 inch, and each short line on the sleeve equals 0.025 inch • Each division on the thimble scale usually equals 0.001 inch; the number on the thimble (like 5, 10, 15, 20) represents thousandths

💭 Think About

• First, decide how many full 0.100-inch increments are clearly visible to the left of the thimble edge on figure I. What is that base reading? • Next, check whether an extra 0.025-inch line on the sleeve is visible past the last whole 0.100 mark and fully exposed. Is there such a line? • Finally, see which thimble graduation line exactly lines up with the reference line on the sleeve. Convert that alignment to thousandths of an inch and add it to your sleeve reading.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure the thimble edge is not covering part of a sleeve division you are counting; only count divisions that are completely to the left of the edge • Confirm whether an extra 0.025-inch sleeve line is visible or hidden; this changes the answer by 0.025 inch • Verify the exact thimble line that coincides with the reference line, then add sleeve + 0.025 (if present) + thimble thousandths before choosing among the options
