Step-by-step solution

I will answer Question 1, OR (b) i).

  1. Identify the Easting**.

    Locate the two-digit Easting grid line immediately to the left (west) of the feature.

  2. Estimate the Easting fraction**.

    Estimate how many tenths of the way the feature is from this Easting line to the next Easting line to the right. Add this single digit to the two-digit Easting to form a three-digit number.

  3. Identify the Northing**.

    Locate the two-digit Northing grid line immediately below (south) the feature.

  4. Estimate the Northing fraction**.

    Estimate how many tenths of the way the feature is from this Northing line to the next Northing line above. Add this single digit to the two-digit Northing to form a three-digit number.

  5. Combine the references**.

    Write the three-digit Easting followed by the three-digit Northing to form the six-figure grid reference.
