Answer: 11%
Explanation:
Given that
X = ab^2/C. Calculate percentage error in X, when percentage error in a,b,c are 4,2 and 3 respectively.
Percentage error of b = 2%
Percentage error of b^2 = 2 × 2 = 4
When you are calculating for percentage error that involves multiplication and division, you will always add up the percentage error values.
Percentage error of X will be;
Percentage error of a + percentage error of b^2 + percentage error of c
Substitute for all these values
4 + 4 + 3 = 11%
Therefore, percentage error of X is 11%
