blackstreet23 · Answer

i just dont understand what does it mean to have an answer within 1% of the correct answer

blackstreet23 · Answer

I put 7.31 and 7.245 and it marked it wrong

anonymous · Answer

You multiply the answer by 0.01 since 0.01=1%
So 7.31109*0.01=0.0731109
The choices should be between or at (7.31109-0.0731109)<7.31109<(7.31109+0.0731109)
Oh and the rule of thumb is always to enter at least 3 digits for numerical questions, so 7.2 is not an entry question, even if it falls in the range.
