Answer:
Explanation:
length L = 5±.1
percentage error
= 0.1/5 x 100 = 2%
breadth b = 3.8 ±.1
percentage error
= .1 / 3.8 x 100
= 2.6 %
Maximum reading of length = 5.1 m
maximum reading of breadth = 3.9m
maximum area possible = 5.1 x 3.9
= 19.9 m².
maximum possible error in the measurement of area in percentage terms
= 2+2.6 = 4.6 %
error in maximum area
19.9 x 4.6 /100
= .9 m²
Minimum possible measurement of area
4.9 x 3.7 = 18.1 m²
possible error
18.1 x 4.6 / 100
= .8 m²
