Answer:

The correct option is A.

Explanation:

The difference between actual value and predicted value is called residual.

Formula of residual is


e=y-\hat{y}

Where, y is observed value or actual value and
\hat{y} is predicted value.


e=3-1.6


e=1.4

The value of residual is 1.4 and option A is correct.
