The formula to calculate the least count of a micrometer is: Least count = Pitch of screw gauge / Number of divisions on circular scale
digital micrometer least count calculation
The least count of the micrometer screw can be calculated using the formula given below: Least count = 0.01 mm

pitch /no of divisions of micrometer barrel
The least count of a screw gauge is calculated by dividing the pitch of the screw by the number of divisions on the circular scale. The formula is Least Count = Pitch / Number of divisions on the circular scale.
in this the one half of the polarimeter is made of glass and other half of the polarimeter is made of quartz
To calculate the least count of a clock, divide the smallest measurement unit of the clock by the total number of divisions on the scale. For example, if the smallest measurement unit is 0.1 seconds and there are 10 divisions on the scale, the least count would be 0.1 seconds divided by 10, which equals 0.01 seconds.
to calculate the least count of travelling microscope first see the no. of division on the main scale say between 12 and 13 there are 20 divisions and the no.of division on vernier scale is 50 then 1 msd = 20 division 1 division = 1/20 msd=0.05 1vsd = 50 division least count = msd/vsd =0.05/50=0.001 so least count is 0.001 cm
well a polarimeter is an instrument for measuring the polarization of light. But Ive never heard of a half shade polarimeter and nor has Google :D
The least count of a metric rule is determined by the smallest division on the scale of the ruler. To calculate the least count, divide the smallest marked division on the ruler by the total number of subdivisions between two main unit markings. For example, if a ruler has millimeter divisions with half-millimeter markings between each millimeter, the least count would be 0.5 mm.
