Answer:
8.11%
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the percentage error. We can follow the formula shown below:
Where
PE is the Percentage Error
New is the newest measure (given as 20 feet)
Orig is the original, or first, measure (given as 18.5)
Substituting and finding the PE:
Tagging the percentage , percent error is about 8.11%
We remember that when we round a decimal, we look the number to the right to the one we want to round (in this case, as we want to round to the nearest hundredth, we look at the thousandth position).
0. If the number ,is greater or equal than 5, we round up, (this is, we add 1 number to the position).
,1. If the number, is less than 5, we round down, (we leave the same number)
In our exercise, we look at the thousandth position, which is 6. And as it is bigger than 5, we add 1 to the 9 (which is the hundredth position):
We obtain 10, but then as we can't put 10 on a digit, we add 1 to the tenth, and we obtain:
Thus, 4,412.096 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 4,412.1.
