There are two Vernier calipers both of which have `1cm` divided into `10` equal divisions on the main scale. The vernier scale of the calipers `( c_(1))` has `10` equal divisions that correspond to `9` main scale divisions. The Vernier scale of the other calipers `( C_(2))` has `10` equal divisions tgat correspond to `11` main scale divisions. the reading of the two calipers are shown in the figure. the measured values (in cm) by calipers `C_(1) and C_(2)` respectively, are

A

2.85 and 2.82
