The amount of tread that has worn off can be calculated by subtracting the current tread depth from the original tread depth:
Original tread depth = 11.2 mm
Current tread depth = 7 mm
Amount of tread worn off = 11.2 mm - 7 mm = 4.2 mm
Since the precision of the ruler used is 1 mm, the uncertainty in the measurement is ±0.5 mm. Therefore, the amount of tread that has worn off, including the uncertainty, is 4.2 mm ± 0.5 mm.
