6. CONCLUSION
We conclude that measuring is very important, every time you will conduct an experiment. In measuring we can accurately give the measurement of an object like, length of the table its width and height. We can also give the accurate volume of a liquid needed to an experiment. For example, we needed 5mL of potassium permanganate. Now to get its volume
