Question

Closeness of a measurement to the actual value of the dimension being measured. For example, a measurement of 1.99999 cm for an object that is 2 cm wide has a high level of accuracy? a.precision b.conversion factor c.quantify d.accuracy?

a. precision
b. conversion factor
c. quantify
d. accuracy

Answer 1

d. accuracy

Explanation:

In measurements, accuracy is a term that is used to describe the closeness of a measured value to the actual or true value. While precision describes how close different measured values are to each other.

Thus when a measured value is accurate, it implies that the value is very close or almost equal to the true value. The correct answer to the question is is option D.
