Explanation:

Precision means that a measurement using a particular tool or implement produces similar results every single time it is used. For example, if you step on a scale five times in a row, a precise scale would give you the same weight each time. In math and science, calculating precision is essential to determine if your tools and measurements work well enough to get good data. You can report precision of any data set using the range of values, the average deviation, or the standard deviation.
