I don't believe this is the case. The level of reduction is not 50%, as your data will almost certainly show.

It is likely that your answers to the following will be in the form of decimal numbers. Give your results to three significant figures:
How many cm_t make a cm?
****
2

None of your answers correspond to results you would get from actual measurements.
You haven't included any data as a basis for your answers.
You need to figure out what you might measure to answer the questions, measure it, and document the entire basis for each answer you given.
You will need to redo this experiment and submit the document accordingly.
