Answer:

<h2>10.7%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

expected  weight= 28pounds

Actual weight= 25 pound

Required:

percent error

\delta = \left| \frac{v_A - v_E}{v_E} \right| \cdot 100\%

δ= percent error

vA =actual value observed

vE =expected value

δ=25-28/28*100

δ=-3/28*100

δ=0.107*100

δ=10.7%

The percent error is 10.7%
