When is the length of an object measured to the nearest half inch a whole number?
When you are rounding out to the nearest inch. * * * * * Very funny! If the length is between (x-0.25) inches and (x+0.25) inches it will be rounded to x inches.
Can an object that when measured to the nearest quarter inch have a different length then when measured to the nearest half inch?
Yes, of course, you lose more precision if you round to a half inch. Try rounding 0.76 to the nearest half unit, and to the nearest quarter unit, and see what happens.
Using a metric ruler student x measured the length of an object to the nearest tenth while student y measure the length to the nearest centimeter which measurement is more accurate?
There are 100 centimeters in a meter. The second student (y) would be more accurate.
The perimeter is 45 inches and the width is 15 inches what is the length?
length=7.5 inches this is only correct if the object is a rectangle.
What is the volume of a square pyramid measured in?
The volume of any object is measured in cubic units of length - whatever the shape of the object. The only thing that might change are the units of length themselves: if you are imperial minded, then the volume of a model pyramid would be measured in cubic inches, that of the Egyptian or Central/South American ones would be in cubic yards. If you are SI minded, then you will prefer cubic centimetres or cubic metres.

What is the length to the nearest 1 half in?
It is the length of an object, where the measurement is rounded to the nearest 0.5 inches.
Can an object that when measured to the nearest quarter inch have a different length then when measured to the nearest half inch?
Yes, of course, you lose more precision if you round to a half inch. Try rounding 0.76 to the nearest half unit, and to the nearest quarter unit, and see what happens.
What is the nearest one quarter inch of an object that measures 4 in?
