Answer:

percent error ≈ 29. 7 %

Step-by-step explanation:

percentage error = absolute error / exact value × 100

where

absolute error = |approximate value - exact value|

approximate value = 45

exact value = 64

absolute error = |45 - 64| = 19

percentage error = absolute error / exact value × 100

percentage error = 19/64 × 100

percentage error = 1900/64

percentage error = 29.6875  %

To the nearest tenth

percent error ≈ 29. 7 %
