We need two readings. One is Main scale reading and the other is vernier scale reading.
Main scale reading will be read on the main scale.
We need an indicator to read it. Right?
The marking ie zero of the vernier is that indicator. So the reading on the main scale which has been just crossed by zero of the vernier is taken as Main scale reading.
Now to get VSR, we need vernier scale coincidence. How do we get this?
Any one of the divisions of the vernier will be found coincided with some divisions marked on the main scale. We don't worry about that main scale division but we concentrate only on the vernier scale division. This is VSC
This VSC is to be multiplied by least count. So VSC x LC gives the VSR
Now MSR + VSR gives the accurate reading.

Why vernier calipers is called vernier calipers?
Because the secondary scale, which gave the calipers it accuracy, was designed by the French mathematician Pierre Vernier.
What instrument can be used to measure both internal and external diameter?
vernier calliper scale. give us reading upto two places right side from decimal
Who found the vernier calipers?
I guess it is found by vernier as it works on vernier theory -Manasa
What is the material of vernier caliper?
Vernier Caliper are made with different materials even plastic vernier calipers are also available in market however generally stainless steel is used in making of vernier calipers
Does England have vernier calipers?
Vernier calipers are in use in machine shops throughout the world. Of course, they are gradually being replaced by digital calipers but, plenty are still in use in England.
Why is it more convenient to use the vernier calipers than external and internal calipers?
Vernier calipers is more convenient to use compared to the external and internal calipers because vernier caliper by its own could be used as external and internal calipers. When using Vernier caliper you can identify the measurement withtout using ruler, meter stick etc. but the internal and external calipers rely on measuring tools to know the exact measurement... (*Ivan Richmond Jumawan*).
Vernier calipers are manufactured with what scales?
The modern vernier caliper reads to thousandths of an inch
Is vernier calipers used to measure length?
Vernier Calipers are instruments that are used measure length. It is an instrument that provides a digit of accuracy.
Who invented slide calipers?
Slide calipers was invented by the French mathematician Pierre Vernier.It was known as Vernier calipers.
What is the accuracy of vernier calipers?
0.01 centimetre

Vernier calipers.
Do you like vernier calipers?
Yes, they are handy instruments.
