అంటే ఏమిటి Percent Error Calculator?

▾

Percent error measures the accuracy of an experimental or measured value compared to an accepted or theoretical value. It expresses the discrepancy as a percentage, making it easy to compare errors across different scales and units.

Calkulon makes complex calculations simple — built for students and everyday problem-solvers.

ఎలా Percent Error Calculator

▾
  1. 1Percent error = |Experimental − Theoretical| / |Theoretical| × 100%
  2. 2The absolute value removes the sign — percent error is always positive
  3. 3Signed percent error indicates direction: positive = measured too high, negative = too low
  4. 4Used in chemistry, physics, engineering, and manufacturing quality control

పరిష్కరించిన ఉదాహరణలు

▾
ఉదాహరణ 1
ఇవ్వబడింది:Measured density: 9.7 g/cm³, True density: 10.0 g/cm³
ఫలితం:3.0% error

|9.7−10| / 10 × 100 = 3%

ఉదాహరణ 2
ఇవ్వబడింది:Predicted 50, actual 47
ఫలితం:6.0% error

|50−47| / 47 × 100 = 6.38%

Acceptable Percent Error by Application

▾

Engineering / machining<0.1–2%Depends on tolerance
Chemical lab experiments<5%Educational context
Survey / opinion polls±3–5%Sampling error
Medical diagnostics<5%Varies by test type
Weather forecasting (24hr)<10%Temperature predictions

నిపుణుడి చిట్కా

Percent error uses the theoretical (accepted) value in the denominator, not the experimental value. Using the wrong denominator is a common mistake that gives a different — and incorrect — result.

మీకు తెలుసా?

NASA's Mars Climate Orbiter was lost in 1999 due to a unit conversion error — one team used metric units while another used imperial. The spacecraft was $327 million. The percent error in trajectory was small, but catastrophic at interplanetary scale.
