Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Identify calibration and reading

The thermometer's calibration is $1^{\circ}C$ and we need to record to the tenths place. The mercury - column is at 30, so the reading should be accurate to one - decimal place.

Answer:

$30.0^{\circ}C$ (Note: There is no such option exactly in the given choices, but based on the calibration and requirement of recording to tenths place, if the reading is right on 30, it should be recorded as $30.0^{\circ}C$)
