The underside of the perimeter of a Merry-Go-Round platform should be no less than how many inches above protective surfacing?

6 inches
7 inches
9 inches
12 inches

The correct answer is: 9 inches

When it comes to Merry-Go-Rounds, safety is the top priority. The underside of the perimeter of the platform should be at least 9 inches above the protective surfacing to prevent any potential accidents or injuries. Option A and B might seem like a reasonable measurement, but they don't meet the safety standards set for a Merry-Go-Round. Option D is too high and can make it difficult for younger children to safely get on and off the platform. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate measurement to ensure the safety of all riders.
