In a Vernier Calipers. $10$ divisions of Vernier scale is equal to the $9$ divisions of main scale. When both jaws of Vernier calipers touch each other, the zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the left of $zero$ of the main scale and $4^{\text {th }}$ Vernier scale division exactly coincides with the main scale reading. One main scale division is equal to $1\,mm$. While measuring diameter of a spherical body, the body is held between two jaws. It is now observed that zero of the Vernier scale lies between $30$ and $31$ divisions of main scale reading and $6^{\text {th }}$ Vernier scale division exactly. coincides with the main scale reading. The diameter of the spherical body will be $.......cm$
