Percentage error = absolute error/ measured value * 100%
0.4% = absolute error/125 * 100%
absolute error = 0.5
Range of true weight = (125-0.5) to (125+0.5)
= 124.5 g to 125.5 g
Maximum absolute error
= Measured value X percentage error
= 125 X 0.4%
= 0.5 g
upper limit of the weight of the bag
= measured value+maximum absoulte error
= 125 + 0.5
= 125.5 g
Lower limit of the weight of the bag
= measured value﹣maximum absoulte error
= 125 – 0.5
= 124.5 g
Therefore, range of true value of the weight is 124.5 g ~ 125.5 g
