Given the actual value, a, of a quantity and an approximate value, x, of the quantity, the absolute
error is |x−a|.
Absolute error
Percent error
Proportion
The percent the absolute error is of the actual value, (|x−a|a⋅100)% where a is the actual value
of the quantity and x is the approximate value of the quantity
