The correct spelling would be vernier callipers, or vernier calipers depending on which country you come from. They are used for measuring the inner distance between two surfaces. (e.g. if your tube material is 1 cm thick, and 5 cm across on the outside surface, the vernier calipers would show a distance of 3 cm.
In MKS unit system for length 1/1000 of a meter is termed as 1 Millimeter. and is measured with a screw guage of Least count 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 mm or with a vernier caliper of least count as given earlier or with a universal measuring machine of least count usually 1/2 micron or with a co-ordinate measuring machine of least count 10^-5 mm. If it is for fluid measurement 1/1000 part of a liter is called milliliter If it is time measurement 1/1000 of a second is called millisecond. In short 10^12 - tera 10^9 - giga 10^6 - mega 10^3 - Kilo 10^2 - hecto 10^1 - deca 10^-1 - deci 10^-2 - centi 10^-3 - milli 10^-6 - micro 10^-9 - nano 10^-12 - pico and so on.
Hi, heres how you calculate least count of a micrometer. Use the given formula: Least Count (L. C) = Pitch/no. of divisions on micrometer barrel(thimble) where, Pitch = distance travelled by thimble on linear scale in one rotation. Hi, heres how you calculate least count of a micrometer.

Just one mm is all the difference there is.
The least count (LC) of vernier calipers is the smallest measurement that can be accurately read using the instrument. It is determined by the difference between one main scale division and one vernier scale division. For a typical vernier caliper with a main scale division of 1 mm and a vernier scale that has 10 divisions corresponding to 9 mm on the main scale, the least count would be 0.1 mm (1 mm - 0.9 mm). This means that measurements can be taken with a precision of 0.1 mm.

Standard is 0.01 mm
0.1mm It is the range of verniercalliper. As it has least count 0.1mm that's why its range is 0.1 mm in physics laboratory
Least count of vernier caliper= 1 MSD - 1 VSD. Main scale usually would have 1 mm as the minimum division. Such 9 divisions, ie 9 mm would be divided into ten equal parts in the vernier. So VSD = 0.9 mm Hence the least count = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1 mm If the same is to be given in centimetre, then it will be 0.01 cm.
The least value which can be measured from any measuring instrument or device is called its least count. Generally the least count of a vernier caliper is 0.02mm.You can get a least count of 0.01mm in Digital vernier caliper.

The least count of a vernier depth micrometer can be calculated using the formula: [ \text{Least Count} = \text{Value of one main scale division} - \text{Value of one vernier scale division} ] Typically, for a depth micrometer, the value of one main scale division is 1 mm, and if the vernier scale has 10 divisions that equal 9 mm, the least count would be: [ \text{Least Count} = 1 , \text{mm} - \left(\frac{9 , \text{mm}}{10}\right) = 0.1 , \text{mm} , \text{or} , 0.01 , \text{cm}. ]
The smallest division on the main scale of vernier calipers is typically 1 millimeter (mm). On the vernier scale, the smallest division is usually 0.02 mm or 0.01 mm, depending on the precision of the caliper. This allows for measurements to be read with greater accuracy, often up to 0.01 mm.
in order to get the result in mm or cm
The least count of the vernier caliper is calculated by dividing the smallest division on the main scale by the total number of divisions on the vernier scale. In this case, 1 cm on the main scale is divided into 20 equal parts, so the least count is 1 cm / 20 = 0.05 cm or 0.5 mm.
