Find the percent error in this situation: estimated value: 1081 actual value: 1150

Percent Error is used in comparing the actual/ exact value to the estimated/ guess value.
First, you need to subtract the actual value from the estimated value. If there is a negative answer, ignore or disregard the sign. In your given data, 1081 less 1150 will equal to -69. Again, disregard the negative sign, so it will only be 69.
Next, divide your answer by the exact value (which is 1150). So 69 divide by 1150 will come up to our final answer which is 0.06 or 6% if we round it off.
FINAL ANSWER IS 6%.
