Usually on most pencils it says it on the case or on the side of the pencil by the eraser it says PENCIL #2 or #2.
Hope i helped!:)
A #2 pencil will usually have the number 2 on the barrel, near the eraser end.
The 2 is the number of the lead in the pencil.
2
The # is reference to the hardness of lead A number 2 pencil is averagely hard aka HB
Theoretically, the a number 2 pencil can write an infinite number of words. The number 2 in the number 2 pencil actually indicates how hard the graphite is. For more information, visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencil_hardness#Grading_and_classification
The "number 2" designation refers to the "hardness" of the lead. The higher the number, the "harder" The "7mm" designation refers to the "thickness" of the lead. The higher the number, the thicker. They are not the same pencil.
It has to do with the kind of graphite or material used as the lead for the pencil.
Yes!!!
I needed a number 2 pencil. Stella penciled the appointment into her datebook. The pencil was chewed on. I lost my only pencil.
a number two pencil is made of wood with graphite in the center of it
yellow?
The number two in reference to a pencil denotes the relative hardness of the graphite or "lead" that is in the pencil, HB being softer and three being harder, etc.
