Answer: A
Explanation:
Percentage error is error divided by actual value multiply by 100. That is,
%error = error/actual value × 100
If Jade measured the height of an art frame as 5.23 feet, where the actual height was 6 feet. Then,
Error = 6 - 5.23 = 0.77
Substitute error = 0.77 and the actual value = 6 into the formula
%error = 0.77/6 × 100
%error = 12.83 %
Therefore, the percent of error in Jade’s measurement is 12.83%
