in measuring the sides of a rectangle , one side is taken 14 % in excess and other 5 % in deficit . find the error percentage in the area calculated from these measurements .
"say both sides of the rectangle are equal to 100 ( so consider that we have a square ) . in this case the area is 100 * 100 = 10,000 . now , the area obtained with wrong measurements would be 114 * 95 = 10,830 , which is 8.3 % greater than the actual area . answer : c ."
subtract(subtract(14, 5), divide(multiply(14, 5), const_100))
