How do you calculate least count of the vernier caliper for digital?

The least count of the vernier can be measured by using the formula stated below. Least count (L.C) = 1 M.S.D - 1 V.S.D Example; vernier scale is constructed by taking 49 main scale divisions dividing them into 50 divisions ie. 49mm divided into 50 parts therfore 1 vsd=49/50 mm=0.98mm 1 MSD=1mm substituting in formula L.C = 1 M.S.D - 1 V.S.D L.C=1-0.98=0.02mm
