A student estimated the temperature of the room to be 24°C. After carefully measuring, he found the actual temperature to be 23.5°C. What is the percent of error?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.13% (rounded to nearest thousandth)

Step-by-step explanation:

You subtract 24 from 23.5 to get 0.5

Then you divide 0.5 by 23.5 to get 0.02127

Then you multiply that by 100 to get your percent error

Taking 24 then using the process of elimination the total percentage that he was off by was 1.05% off
