Question

use the corrected line plot to answer the question below. thickness of paper stack line plot with xs at \\(\frac{1}{2}\\), \\(\frac{3}{4}\\), and 1 on a number line labeled inches what was the difference between the highest guess and the lowest guess? write your answer as a fraction, mixed number, or whole number. \\(\square\\) inches

Explanation:

Step1: Identify highest and lowest

Highest guess is \(1\), lowest is \(\frac{1}{2}\).

Step2: Calculate the difference

Subtract lowest from highest: \(1 - \frac{1}{2}\)
\(1=\frac{2}{2}\), so \(\frac{2}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\)

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{2}\)
