Answer:

The percentage error is 5.56%

Explanation:

Given

Measured (M) = 2.04m

Actual (A)= 2.16m

Required

Determine the percentage error

Percentage error (P) is calculated as follows:

P = \frac{|A - M|}{A} * 100\%

P = \frac{|2.16 - 2.04|}{2.16} * 100\%

P = \frac{|0.12|}{2.16} * 100\%

P = \frac{0.12}{2.16} * 100\%

P = \frac{12\%}{2.16}

P = 5.56\%

Hence:

<em>The percentage error is 5.56%</em>

-The FDA was established around the early 1900s (06') after health problems between production and regulations of factory processed food [and drugs], mostly on the process of meat. (I remember learning this in US History, they blended rats along with human fingers in some of the meat, selling it to people. The book: "The Jungle" also caused this act to come in place)
-I didn't mean to go into history of this lol

The other answers would not make sense as their mission focuses on other regulations.

Hope this helps :)
