<u>Solution:</u>
Given mass of an ostrich egg is 1.2 Kg
We have to find the minimum and maximum possible measurements to the nearest tenth of a kilogram
The greatest possible error in measurement nearest tenth of a kilogram, is a half a tenth of a kilogram which is:-
Now, the maximum value will be equal to calculated amount plus the error in measurement of value .i.e.
Now, the minimum value will be equal to calculated amount minus the error in measurement of value .i.e.
Hence, maximum possible measurement is 1.25 Kg
And the minimum possible measurement is 1.15 kg
