By definition of percent error, you can't. But you can approximate zero instead, with the number of decimals appropriate to the accuracy of the measurement, e.g. 0.01, 1E-100, etc.

You do not add the percentage error but the actual error.
The mean absolute percent prediction error (MAPE), .The summation ignores observations where yt = 0.
It is your estimate minus the true value divided by the true value and multiplied by 100. So, % error = (estimate - actual) / actual * 100, in absolute value. For example, if you estimate that there are 90 jelly beans in a jar when there are actually 130 your percentage error is: (90-130)/130 * 100 = -40/130 * 100 = -0.308*100 = -30.8% After absolute value, the answer is simply 30.769, or 30.8%.
2.5% error. Hence, theoritical - 2.5% = actual.

high percent error is the absolute value of something that is multiplied
Depending on whether you subtract actual value from expected value or other way around, a positive or negative percent error, will tell you on which side of the expected value that your actual value is. For example, suppose your expected value is 24, and your actual value is 24.3 then if you do the following calculation to figure percent error:[percent error] = (actual value - expected value)/(actual value) - 1 --> then convert to percent.So you have (24.3 - 24)/24 -1 = .0125 --> 1.25%, which tells me the actual is higher than the expected. If instead, you subtracted the actual from the expected, then you would get a negative 1.25%, but your actual is still greater than the expected. My preference is to subtract the expected from the actual. That way a positive error tells you the actual is greater than expected, and a negative percent error tells you that the actual is less than the expected.

Percent Error = {Absolute value (Experimental value - Theoretical Value) / Theoretical Value }*100
Absolute percent error is the Percent Difference between two values.Applying the equation for Absolute error.For example: 21.571 is the True value 20.000 is the Recorded Value.Thus: (Recorded Value) - (True value) = Absolute error (21.571) - (20.000) = 1.571We modify this to match the following:(Recorded Value ) - (True value) / True value * 100This will give us a percent error of:(20.000 - 21.571) / 21.571 *100 = -7.28%
Percent error = (actual value - theoretical value) / theoretical value * 100%
It is your estimate minus the true value divided by the true value and multiplied by 100. So, % error = (estimate - actual) / actual * 100, in absolute value. For example, if you estimate that there are 90 jelly beans in a jar when there are actually 130 your percentage error is: (90-130)/130 * 100 = -40/130 * 100 = -0.308*100 = -30.8% After absolute value, the answer is simply 30.769, or 30.8%.
2.5% error. Hence, theoritical - 2.5% = actual.
(absolute error)/(full scale deflection) x 100 = % error
