64 and 93 percent error (%)
Percentage (%) Error Calculator
How to calculate Percent Error - Step by Step Solution
The Percent Calculator (Error) uses this formula:
The terms "experimental" and "theoretical" used in the equation above are commonly replaced with similar terms. Some terms also used for experimental are "measured," or "actual" and for theoretical the terms "accepted" and "calculated" are frequently used.
The Percent Error can be a positive or a negative number. If the experimental value is greater than the theoretical value, the result will be positive. On the other hand, if the experimental value is smaller than the theoretical value, the result will be negative. See more about percent error here.
This calculator can answers to questions like:
1) What is the percent error supposing 93 as the measured value and 64 as the calculated value?
2) What is the percent error supposing 64 as the measured value and 93 as the calculated value?
3) What is the absolute error between 64 and 93 supposing 64 as the theoretical value? Or may be: 64 and 93 percent error (%)
See the solutions to these problems below.
1) What is the percent error supposing 93 as the measured value and 64 as the calculated value?
Use the formula above to find the percent error. So, replacing the given values, we have
Percent error = [(93 - 64) / 64] x 100
= (29 / 64) x 100
= 45.3125 % (positive error)
In this case we have a % of positive error because the experimental is greater than the theoretical.
2) What is the absolute error between 64 and 93 considering 64 as the theoretical value?
This problem is not about percent or relative error, but about absolute error. The solution is very simple:
= 93 - 64 = 29 (positive error)
