You estimate the distance from your house to your school to be 1.6 miles. The actual distance is 1.9 miles. Find the percent error. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.
To find percent error you use the following formula: [tex]% Error = \frac{final value - given value}{given value} [/tex] % error = (1.6 - 1.9)/1.9 * 100% = 15.79%
