Question
A girl found the answer for the question “subtract the
sum 1/4 and 1/8 from unity and express the answer in decimals” as 1.5. The percentage of error in her answer was?Solution
Correct answer = 1 - (1/4+1/8) = 1 - ((2+1)/8) ⇒ 1 - 3/8 = 5/8 = 0.625 Difference in answer = 1.5 - 0.625 = 0.875 Required percentage = 0.875/0.625 × 100 = 140 %
