Trent told his friends it would take him 90 minutes to mow the lawn. It only took him 75 minutes. What is his percent error?

Answer 1

Answer:

His percent error is 16.6 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Trent estimated hie time to be 90m

Actual time was 75m

Error was 90m - 75m = 15m

Fractional error was then 15m/90m (divide)

So % error is 15/90 times 100 = (100/6)% = 16.6%

Answer 2

His per cent error is 16.¯^6%

Explanation:

Trent estimated his time to be 90m but the Actual time was 75m

Error was 90m−^75m=15m

A Fractional error was then 15m90m

So % error is 1590 ×100=1006%=16.¯^6%
