Answer:
762%
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cube = s³
Volume of the cube is then
V = 5.08 * 5.09 * 5.1
V = 131.87 cm³
Percentage errors are calculated by the formula
%E = (V.a - V.e)/V.e * 100%, where
%E = percentage error
V.a = actual volume
V.e = expected volume
%E = (131.87 - 15.3) / 15.3 * 100%
%E = 116.57 / 15.3 * 100%
%E = 7.62 * 100%
%E = 762%
Therefore, the percentage error is a whooping 762% which is a whole lot!
