awesome it gives you the formula Experimental Value = 15.1 Actual Value = 14.6 do you know how to plug in these values into your formula?
no
Let's start of easy then what is 15.1 - 14.6 = ?
0.5
good, then tell me, what was the actual value again?
14.6
ok, so we want to take the 0.5 we got and the actual value and do: 0.5 divided by 14.6 = ?
to sum it up it'll be 0.034 but the full number is 0.0342465753
perfect! now, the last step: convert the number you just got from a decimal into a percent
do you know how to do that?
yes 3.42465753%
fantastic! That is the right answer but the problem suggests that you round to the nearest tenth of a percent
ok i got it ty
you're welcome Here is a recap of the math that we did using the formula: \(\huge\frac{15.1 - 14.6}{14.6}\large\times 100 = 3.4\)
