A percent error depends on the size of the measurement as well as the error itself. It's very intuitive to think about: If you're measuring a piece of paper and you're off by 4 cm, you'll have problems; if you're measuring the moon, that's nothing. A bigger percent error is a bigger deal to an engineer. You can calculate it the same way as any percentage: Divide the error by the total length of the measurement, then multiply by 100 to convert it from a proportion to a percentage.
A maximum of 12.5%
The difference between low percent error and high percent error is one is low and the other is high
The error in its area is then 2 percent....
No.
what is the percent error of 12m
The density is (its mass)/64 grams/cm3
.002 / 4 = .0005 = .05%
Percent error.

1/100
percent error
Yes (apart from units):If the side of a square is 4cm then itsperimeter is 4cm + 4cm + 4cm + 4cm = 4 x 4cm = 16cm;area is 4cm x 4cm = 16cm2
4cm is a unit of length, so 4cm is 4cm long... but if you were asking how long 4cm is in inches, 4cm = about 1.5748031 inches
no
No.
high percent error is the absolute value of something that is multiplied
