Question

Abby that she needed to boil 3 cups of water but she actually needed to boil 5 cups of water what was her percent error

Answer 1

No entendí lo siento

Answer 2

40%

Explanation:

Use the percent error formula:

percent error = (|accepted value – experimental value| / accepted value) x 100

Plug in the values and solve:

(|5 - 3| / 5) x 100

(2 / 5) x 100

= 40

So, the percent error is 40%
