Description

📏 Percent Error Calculator – Measure Accuracy in Experiments

The Percent Error Calculator helps you compare an experimental (measured) value with a theoretical (true/accepted) value. It shows how accurate or precise a result is, making it essential for science, engineering, and data analysis.

📘 What It Calculates:

  • ✅ Percent error between experimental and theoretical values

  • ✅ Accuracy of lab results and experiments

  • ✅ Useful in physics, chemistry, and engineering

💡 Features:

  • Simple input (experimental value + true value)

  • Instant percent error calculation

  • Works for positive and negative differences

  • Step-by-step explanation

👤 Who Should Use This:

  • 📌 Students in science & math labs

  • 📌 Teachers & tutors explaining accuracy concepts

  • 📌 Researchers testing data against standards

  • 📌 Engineers checking design accuracy

✅ Pro Tip:

Percent Error is calculated as:

Percent Error=∣Experimental – Theoretical∣∣Theoretical∣×100\text{Percent Error} = \frac{|\text{Experimental – Theoretical}|}{|\text{Theoretical}|} × 100Percent Error=∣Theoretical∣∣Experimental – Theoretical∣​×100
