Answer:

As this is incomplete, it lacks the value of actual error.

Here, we do not know the actual value. so let's assume it is 1 inch

Relative Error = 6.25 % ≈ 6.3% = D

Step-by-step explanation:

As this is incomplete, it lacks the value of actual error.

We are asked to calculate the relative of the measurement.

Relative error formula = Actual error/Measurement x 100

Here, we do not know the actual value. so let's assume it is 1 inch

Actual value = 1 inch

Measurement = 16 inch

Relative Error = 1/16 x 100

Relative Error = 6.25 % ≈ 6.3% = D

D. 6.3%

Answer:

This is very detailed as I wish to make some principles about fractions clear.

Explanation:

This question boils down to

A fractions structure is that of:

count

size indicator of what you are counting

→

numerator

denominator

You can not directly add or subtract the counts (numerators) unless the size indicators (denominators) are the same.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Consider  

3

2

3

Write as  

3

+

2

Multiply by 1 and you do not change the value. However, 1 comes in many forms so you can change the way something looks without changing its true value

Putting it all together

But the size indicators are not the same. I chose to make them become 12
