Question

Blair bought a hutch for her desk that was 23 inches long. The box said that the

hutch was 25 inches long. What was the percent error of the hutch?

Answer 1

Percent error = observed - true/true * 100, observed = 23, true = 25
23-35 = -2/25 = -0.08 = 8% error
I think (or I might had reversed the observed and true)
