Question

Derek measured the height of a window frame as 5.49 feet, but the actual height was 6 feet. What is the percentage of error in Derek's measurement?

Answer 1

Yup 8.5 is the answer because I just did the quiz

Explanation:

Answer 2

Actual = 6 feet.

Measure = 5.49 feet

Error = 6 - 5.49 = 0.51

% Error = (Error / Actual) * 100%

= 0.51/6 * 100% = 8.5%
