i told you it was0.04 and the econd one is To move from meter to millimeter you divide by 1,000

Answer 9

how did you get 0.04 tho @jenn_jenn94

Answer 10

24/25 = 0.96

so relative error is 0.04 its a ratio but can also be a percentage.

Answer 11

okay how do you do ratios again @Helpmeplease99

Answer 12

its like getting 50 / 100 on a test, you divide the smaller one by the bigger one, and then u convert to a percentage multiplying by 100. in your case its relative error, so u are after the difference between the two numbers, how much does 24 vary to 25 in other words. think percentages, 25 is 100 % how much is 24 of 25 and what is the difference between the two.

Answer 13

To indicate that you're using a ratio, you can use the division sign ( / ), a colon ( : ),
