Answer 1

The amount of a chemical solution is measured to be 2 liters. What is the percent error of the measurement?

25%

Answer 2

the complete question in the attached figure

we know that
2 liters may be 1.5 to 1.9 rounded up to 2
or 2.1 to 2.4 rounded down to 2

the biggest percent error would be between 2 and 1.5, which is a volume error of 0.5 liters
2 - 1.5 = 0.5 liters
percent error = (absolute error / quantity) * 100
percent error = [0.5/2] * 100% = 0.25 * 100% = 25%

the answer is the option C) 25%
