Elly measures an object.The object is just longer than the halfway mark between 6 and 7 on her inch ruler.How long is the object?I don't understand if they mean half of 6 which is 3 or Half 7 which is 3.5.

Answer :

From the given question,

Halfway mark between 6 and 7 means the middle of 6 and 7, which is 6.5

This shows that the object length falls between 6.5 and 7 which also means it is greater than 6.5.

Estimating the value gives we can say the object is about 7inches long
