자주 묻는 질문
What is a good percentage error?
It depends on the field: school labs often accept under 5–10%, while engineering tolerances can be far stricter. Always compare against the accepted standard for your context.
Can percentage error be negative?
No — the formula uses the absolute difference, so the error is always positive. The direction of the mistake is reported separately in lab work.
