Respuesta :

Answer:

the percent error is 6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent error is

= (Experimental value - accepted value) ÷ (experimental value) × 100

= (80 degrees - 75 degrees) ÷ (80 degrees) × 100

= (5 degrees) ÷ (80 degrees) × 100

= 0.0625 × 100

= 6.25%

hence, the percent error is 6.25%

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come
