The actual length of a soccer field is 500 feet. a broken measuring instrument shows the length to be 493 feet. find the percent error for the length of the soccer field.

Percent error for the length of the soccer field is 1.4 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual length of the soccer field  = 500 ft

The measured length of he field = 493 ft

ERROR in the measurement = ACTUAL LENGTH - MEASURED LENGTH

                                                =  500 ft - 493 ft = 7 ft

So, there is an error of 7 ft in measuring the length of the field.

Hence, percent error for the length of the soccer field is 1.4 %
