Question

Spongebob was trying to make Krabby Patties that weighed 12oz. He made 4 Krabby Patties. They all had the following weights: 12.12oz; 11.9oz; 12.2oz; 12.1oz. Is this an example of Accuracy? Precision? Both? Neither?

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, the 4 Krabby patties are an example of high precision.

Explanation:

Precision is the closeness of the values ​​obtained by applying them to the same parameter. To calculate the precision, the closeness of each of the values ​​with the mean must be determined, all the values ​​will be taken by subtracting the mean and the values ​​will be taken into account to know which are the most accurate.

(12.12 + 11.9 + 12.2 + 12. 1) / 4 = 12.08

12.12 - 12.8 = 0.04

11.9 - 12.08 = - 0. 18

12.2 - 12.08 = 0.12

12.1 - 12.08 = 0.02

The most accurate precision is that of the fourth Krabby Pattie and the least precise is that of the second.
