Answer:

Percentage error is 0.0024 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial average distance between Earth and moon = 384467 km  

Distance measure by the scientist = 384476 km

Total variation in the distance calculation = 384476 – 384467 = 9 km.

Now we can find the percentage by dividing the variation in distance from the initial measurement and then multiply with hundred.

Percentage error = ( 9 /  384467 ) × 100 = 0.0024 %
