Answer:
Percent error=1.23%
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Estimate length of room=20 feet
Actual length of room=20.25 feet
We have to find the percent error.
To find the percent error we will find the difference between the estimate length and actual length of room.
Difference=Actual length of room-Estimate length of room
Difference=20.25-20
Difference=0.25 feet
Now,
Percent error=[tex]\frac{Difference}{actual\;length}\times 100[/tex]
Percent error=[tex]\frac{0.25}{20.25}\times 100[/tex]
Percent error=1.23%
