Answer:

The answer is 6.25%

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

[tex]P(\%) = \frac{error}{actual \: \: number} \times 100\% \\ [/tex]

actual density = 0.80 g/mL

error = 0.85 - 0.8 = 0.05

We have

[tex]p(\%) = \frac{0.05}{0.80} \times 100 \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

6.25 %

Hope this helps you
