Shaun estimated that the attendance at a college baseball game was 1,000. The actual Q3: attendance was 1,788. What is the percent error of Shaun's estimate? Round to the nearest whole percent.

Respuesta :

The percentage error of Shaun's estimate is 44%

Here, we want to get the percentage error

We can get this by using the formula below;

[tex]\frac{error}{\text{actual value}}\text{ }\times\text{ 100\%}[/tex]

We have the error as the difference between the estimated value and the actual value

The difference is;

[tex]1,788\text{ - 1,000 = 788}[/tex]

The percentage error is;

[tex]\frac{788}{1,788}\text{ }\times\text{ 100 \% = 44.07 }[/tex]

This is approximately 44%
