Answer:

Hence, Carlos' percent error to nearest tenth of percent is 27.3

Explanation:

We are given that:

Carlos predicts he has 24 dollars in his wallet.

If Carlos actually had 33 dollars

We have to find the Carlos' percent error

Percent error is given by:


(error)/(actual\ value)* 100

Error= 33-24=9

actual value=33

Hence, percent error=
(9)/(33)* 100\\ \\=27.27

Hence, Carlos' percent error to nearest tenth of percent is 27.3
