When both jaws of vernier callipers touch each other, the zero mark of the vernier scale is to the right of the zero mark of the main scale, and the $4^{\text{th}}$ mark on the vernier scale coincides with a certain mark on the main scale. While measuring the length of a cylinder, the observer observes $15$ divisions on the main scale and the $5^{\text{th}}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The measured length of the cylinder is . . . . . . $mm$. (Least count of Vernier calliper $= 0.1 \ mm$)
