Answer :
Answer:
The percentage error is 1.56 %.
Explanation:
To calculate the percentage error, we use the equation:
[tex]\%\text{ error}=\frac{|\text{Experimental value - Accepted value}|}{\text{Accepted value}}\times 100[/tex]
We are given:
Experimental value of an average = 97.5
Accepted value of an average = 96
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\%\text{ error}=\frac{|97.5-96|}{96}\times 100\\\\\%\text{ error}=1.56\%[/tex]
Hence, the percentage error in our calculation is 1.56 %.
Ok percent error is abs(calculated-actual)/actual(100%)
So 1.5/96 *100%
So 1.5/96 *100%
