Question

A box is known to hold exactly 250 cm3. Which side dimensions produce the most accurate measurement of the box?

Answer 1

A) 4.9 x 5.1 x 10.0

Explanation:

4.9 x 5.1 x 10.0

4.9 x 5.1 x 10.0 = 249.90 cm3 is the closest to the true known value.

The other answers are more precise, but not as accurate. Accuracy is how close a measured value is to the actual or true value.
