Answer:

The percentage error in x can be calculated as follows:

Percentage error = (Estimated value - Actual value) / Actual value * 100

Let x be the actual value and y be the estimated value such that y > x.

Percentage error = (y - x) / x * 100

This formula calculates the absolute error in terms of a percentage of the actual value.
