Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In the context of measurement, what does the term 'precision' refer to?

  • Step 2: Think of precision as consistency. If you measure something several times and get similar results, those measurements are precise.
  • Step 3: Remember that precision does not mean the measurements are correct; it only means they are consistent with each other.
