Answer:

The difference in both the guessed values is 5 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

The less error computation is done by dividing the difference between the guessed value and the actual value.

Here in this case

Error in case of Fransisco = 55-50 = 5

Error in case of Kazuko = 60 -55 = 5

Hence, both have guessed incorrect value and their incorrect values is either 5 units less or 5 units higher than the actual value.
