Respuesta :

Answer:

2.36 %

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

[tex]P(\%) = \frac{error}{actual \: \: number} \times 100\% \\ [/tex]

error = 46.7 - 45.6 = 1.1

actual mass = 46.7

From the question we have

[tex]p(\%) = \frac{1.1}{46.7} \times 100 \\ = 2.3555...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

2.36 %
