The least count of vernier callipers is ...

The least count of vernier callipers is `0.1 mm`. The main scale reading before the zero of the vernier scale is `10` and the zeroth division of the vernier scale coincides with the main scale division. Given that each main scale division is `1mm`. The measured value should be expressed as
