A measure is 5.6 meters off (different from) the target value of 112 meters. Calculate the percent error.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is - 5.

Explanation:

The percentage of the error in any experiment can be calculated by the ratio difference between the target value and the observed value over the target value into 100.

Percentage error =  {|Vtrue - Vobserved|/Vtrue}× 100

Solution:

percentage error = (5.6/112)*100

= 0.05*100

= 5

Thus, the correct answer is - 5.
