Question

My actual weight is 112 pounds. The bathroom scale says that I weigh 111.1

pounds. The scale at the doctor's office gives a reading of 114.8 pounds.
What is the relative error for the measurement taken at home?

Answer 1

It depends on certain factors

Explanation:

If you're wearing shoes and heavy clothing/accessories at the doctors office while stepping on the scale. That could add on as weight. Or either scale (most likely the doctors scale) could pick up your weight more accurately than the other. This depends on the age of the scale or if the scale is electric or not.
