Answer:

e_{r} = Δa /a + Δd /Δ d + Δg / g

Step-by-step explanation:

The error or uncertainty of a quantity is given by several factors, the most direct error is the absolute one that is given by the appreciation of the instruments, when some quantities obtained by a mathematical formula we must know how each error is programmed in the total error, we can see this with the relative error

the calculated quantity is Z

its relative error is


e_(r) = ΔZ/Z = 1/Z (dZ /da Δa + dZ /dd Δd + dZ /dg Δg)

e_{r} = 1 / Z (d /g Δa + a /g Δd + ad !1/g²! Δg)

e_{r} = Δa /a + Δd /Δ d + Δg / g

notice that we take the worst case.

The measured quantities have absolute errors Da, Dd, Dg
