उत्तर
For a given set of measurements of the same quantity, the arithmetic mean of all the absolute errors is called mean absolute error in the measurement of that physical quantity.
`triangle "a"_"mean" = (triangle"a"_1 + triangle"a"_2 + ......+ triangle"a"_"n")/"n" = 1/"n"` \[\sum_{i=1}^n\triangle a_i\]

If the formula for a physical quantity is X = `("a"^4"b"^3)/("c"^(1//3)"d"^(1//2))` and if the percentage error in the measurements of a, b, c and d are 2%, 3%, 3% and 4% respectively. Calculate percentage error in X.
In an experiment, the percentage of error occurred in the measurement of physical quantities A, B, C and D are 1%, 2%, 3% and 4% respectively. Then the maximum percentage of error in the measurement X, where X = `(A^2B^(1/2))/(C^(1/3)D^3)`, will be:
The relative density of a metal may be found by hanging a block of the metal from a spring balance and nothing that in air, the balance reads (5 .00 ± 0.05)N while in water, it reads (4.00 ± 0.05)N. The relative density would be quoted as ______.
