The price of the tennis racket was 200 dollars. However, the actual price of the tennis racket was 400 dollars. What is the percent error?

Sagot :

Given,

The price of the tennis rocket = $200

The actual price of the tennis racket was $400

To find,

The percentage error in the price of the rocket.

Solution,

The percentage error is calculated as :

% = (final value-actual value)/actual value × 100

[tex]\%=\dfrac{400-200}{400}\times 100\\\\=50\%[/tex]

So, the percent error is 50%.
