Question

Shaun estimated that the attendance at a college lacrosse game was 3,000. The actual Q2. attendance was 3,702. What is the percent error of Shaun's estimate? Round to the nearest whole percent.

Answer 1

Answer:

Percent error = 19%

Explanations:

Estimated attendance = 3000

Actual attendance = 3702

Error = Estimated attendance - Actual attendance

Error = 3702 - 3000

Error = 702

Percent error = (error / actual attendance) x 100%

Percent error = (702/3702) x 100%

Percent error = 19%
