Jerimiah records lap times at the track meet on Saturday. He records a time of 85 seconds for Jennifer's lap, but she really completed the lap in 84.25 seconds.
What is the approximate percentage of error in Jerimiah's measure?
I'm not sure. What I would do, though, is find the difference of the two times and then find the percentage of that within the original time. So the difference is .75. So the percentage would be .25%. Just an educated guess.
