Question

What is the percent error made, if Josh measured a turtle's shell to be 5.5 cm long and the real measurement was 6 cm long?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 6-5.5 to get .5

and then divide .5/6 to get 0.0833

then multiply that quotient by 100 to get percentage

8.33% or 8.3% if you go to the nearest tenth
