Answer:

The term Accuracy means that how close our result to the original result.

Suppose we do any experiment in laboratory and we calculate mass = 7 kg but answer is mass = 15 kg then our answer is not accurate.

And the term Precision means how likely we get result like this.

Suppose we do any experiment in laboratory and we calculate mass five times and each time we get mass = 7 kg then our answer is precised but not accurate.
