Question

What is the difference between two measurements of

the same object with values of 3.4 and 3.42?

Answer 1

The percentage difference between 3.4 and 3.42 is 0.58651% or 0.02.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the absolute difference between two numbers: |20 - 30| = |-10| = 10

Find the average of those two numbers: (20 + 30) / 2 = 50 / 2 = 25

Divide the difference by the average: 10 / 25 = 0.4

Express it as percentages: 0.4 * 100 = 40%

in this case, it would be 3.4 and 3.42
