The error percentage.

<h3>How to find the error percentage?</h3>

We know the formula for the error percentage.

\rm \% Error = \dfrac{Measured \ value- Actual\ value}{Actual\ value} * 100\\\\ \% Error = \dfrac{78.25 - 75.50}{78.75}*100\\\\ \% Error = \dfrac{3.25}{78.75}*100\\\\ \% Error = 0.0413*100\\\\ \% Error = 4.13 \%

The error percentage is 4.13%.

The average of four numbers is 98. If three of the numbers are 86,87,and 91 what is the fourth number?
timurjin [86]
To find the average, you have to add all the numbers up and then divide by the amount of numbers you added together.

Equation: (86+87+91+x)/4=98
Solve for x:
86+87+91+x=98*4
264+x=392
x=392-264
x=128

The fourth number is 128
