percent uncertainty =  1.667 %

uncertainty is 1.33 mm Hg

Explanation:

given given

blood pressure p = 120 mm Hg

varies pressure Δp = 2 mm Hg

to find out

percent uncertainty

solution

we find here first percentage of  uncertainty that is

percent uncertainty = Δp / p  × 100%

put here value

percent uncertainty = 2 / 120  × 100%

percent uncertainty =  1.667 %
