Calculate the percent error of the distanc A space shuttle was launched from the Earth to the
moon. The average, or accepted, value of the distance
of the Earth to the moon is 238,857 miles, but the
shuttle crew recorded that their trip took 226,316 miles
5.25%
07.15%
3.75%
4.45%

5.25%

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Accepted value = 238857 miles

Measured value = 226316 miles

Percentage error =.?

Next, we shall determine the absolute error. This can be obtained as follow:

Accepted value = 238857 miles

Measured value = 226316 miles

Absolute Error =?

Absolute Error = |Measured – Accepted|

Absolute Error = |226316 – 238857|

Absolute Error = 12541

Finally, we shall determine the percentage error. This can be obtained as follow:

Accepted value = 238857 miles

Absolute Error = 12541

Percentage error =.?

Percentage error = absolute error / accepted value × 100

Percentage error

= 12541 / 238857 × 100

= 1254100 / 238857

= 5.25%

Therefore, the percentage error is 5.25%.
