MeasurementCard 1: What is meant by precision?
PrecisionPrecision is the ability of an instrument in measuring a quantity in a consistent manner with only a small relative deviation between readings. Card 2: How to measure the precision of a measurement?
Relative DeviationThe precision of a reading can be indicated by its relative deviation. The relative deviation is the percentage of mean deviation for a set of measurements and it is defined by the following formula:
