15%
Assertion and Reason
1. Least count of screw gauge

Pitch
Number of divisions of circular scale
Less the value of pitch, less will be least
count of screw gauge leading to len
uncertainty that is more accuracy in the
measurement.
Thus, assertion is true.
From the above relation we conclude that
least count of screw gauge is inversely
proportional to the number of divisions of
circular scale.
Thus reason is false.
Option (c) is correct.
