A student measures her height with a meter stick and finds that she is about 1.5 m tall. How can she measure her height with greater accuracy and precision?

She should use a measuring tape

Explanation:

A student measures her height with a meter stick and gets a result of 1.5 m tall. This may not be as accurate as possible due to the fact that a meter stick has a maximum length of 1m which means an error could have occurred when she had to mark a point and then measure the remaining 0.5m.

She can however measure her height with greater accuracy and precision with a meter tape which has a wider measurement range and there won’t be any need to measure twice.
