Well then, if the last number is yellow, its tenths of a mile/km, so you are right, 14.2.
It's a pretty dumb question though, you must know ROUGHLY how far you've driven, hence it's a bit of a no-brainer? You didn't think someone was going to say that because your odometer reads 0142, you've actually travelled 76 kms did you?
