Question

What is the greatest possible error for a measurement of 0.05 metric tons?

Answer 1

The greatest possible error for a measurement of 0.05 metric tons would depend on the accuracy of the measurement device or technique being used. Without more information about the specific measurement method, it is impossible to determine the greatest possible error.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:The greatest possible error of a measurement is considered to be one-half of the measuring unit. If you measure a length to be 4.3 cm. (measuring to the nearest tenth), the greatest possible error is one-half of one tenth, or 0.05. This means that any measurements in the range from 4.25 cm. to 4.35 cm. are perceived as correct.
