Answer:

4.658 cm

Explanation:

Accuracy is defined as how close the measured value is to a standard value. For example if the given volume of water is 20 ml and the two measured values are 19 ml and 18 ml then the former measured value is more accurate than the later.  

Similarly, 4.658 cm is closest to the given length of 4.66 cm.  

4.66 - 4.658 =  0.002

4.66 - 4.635 =  0.025

4.66 - 4.610 =  0.05

4.66 - 4.560 =  0.1
