There are certain number of students in a class. This is approximated to nearest hundreds. Approximate value is 600 and the absolute error is 25. If exact value is less than the approximated value, then fond the relative error. (Correct to two decimal places).

A

4.36

B

3.37

C

4.35

D

4.34

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Approximate value = 600
Absolute error = 25
Exact value = `600 pm 25 = 575 or 625`
` :.` Relative error = `25/575xx100`
` ~4.3478`
` ~ 4.35`.
