Accuracy refers to how close a measured value is to an excepted value.
Precision refers to how close a series of measurements are to one another
For example, if your experimental value is 15.63 and your values are...
12.84
13.02
12.96
They would be precise because they are close to one another but not accurate because they're not even close to the experimental value
Accuracy is a measure of how close to an absolute standard a measurement is made, while precision is a measure of the resolution of the measurement. Accuracy is calibration, and inaccuracy is systematic error. Precision, again, is resolution, and is a source of random error.
''Accuracy is the degree of closeness to true value. Precision is the degree to which an instrument or process will repeat the same value. In other words, accuracy is the degree of veracity while precision is the degree of reproducibility.
The article at the link below should help you get a handle on the subtle differences between accuracy and precision.
It is a specified degree of accuracy or precision.

Precision is how close your measurements are. Accuracy is how close your measurements are to the actual measurement.
The term accuracy describes how far your observation/measurement is from the correct result. Precision describes how repeatable your results are, regardless of their accuracy..
Imagine a dartboard. An accurate measurement would be analogous to hitting the bulls-eye. While a precise measurement is just the tight clustering of shots.

An accurate answer to a question answers the question. The precision depends on the level of accuracy of the answer.
Poor precision. Precision refers to the consistency of repeated measurements, while accuracy refers to how close a measurement is to the true value. If a speedometer consistently shows a speed that is off by a fixed amount from the actual speed (e.g., always reads 5 mph higher), it has poor accuracy. If it fluctuates widely even for the same speed, it has poor precision.

Accuracy and precision are synonyms. They both mean without error, they are exactly right, No more and no less.
Precision is a writer's attention to accuracy in world choice.
No because precision is when you trie to put your efeert toit
Standard error is a measure of precision.
