Question

what is the difference between accuracy and precision and which is most important to scientific measurement?

Answer 1

Accuracy is the measure of how close a value, a measured value is to an actual literature true value. Precision is a measure of how close certain individual data values are from each other. I believe Accuracy is the most important to scientific measurement as it determines how close an individual value is to the expected book or literature value.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Accuracy and Precision are two important factors to consider when measuring data.

Accuracy means how close the value is to the true value of the quantity. for example how close the arrow reaches to the bulls in archery.

Precision is how repeatable and measurement is, that is consistency of the result. in archery precision is how many times the arrow hits at a single spot on board.
