The smaller the value of the least increment, the more precise a number is.

Length measured to the nearest 1/8 inch will be more precisely specified than length measured to the nearest 1/4 inch.

_____

In general, <em>precision</em> has little to do with <em>accuracy</em>—how close the measured value is to the actual value. A measurement can be very precise, but just plain wrong. (Many electronic instruments have resolution (precision) that exceeds their accuracy. That is, one or two (or more) of the least-significant displayed digits may be in error.)

12^13–12^12+12^11 is divisible by 7 and 19.
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The statement is true

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following :

12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11} is divisible by 7 and 19, true or false?

The given expression is 12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11}

Take 12^{11} as a common

12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11} = 12^{11}*(12^2-12^1+12^0)\\= 12^{11} *(144-12+1)\\=12^{11} * 133\\= 12^{11} * 7 * 19

So, 12^{11} * 7 * 19 divided 7 = 12^{11} * 19

And 12^{11} * 7 * 19 divided 19 = 12^{11} * 7

12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11} is divisible by 7 and 19 (<u>True</u>)
