1. Alyssa estimates that her school auditorium has 660 seats. It actually has 750 seats. What is the percent error of her estimate?

amt. of erroractual

750 - 660750 = 90

750= 0.12 x 100

= 12% error (underestimated)

***Before you can solve this problem, the units must be the same.1 gallon = 128 ounces

0.5 gallon = 64 ounces

64 - 5964

0.078 x 100 = 7.8%(underestimated)
