Question

. The error in multiplication of two numbers (x= a×b) is given by


+-∆x/x = +-( ∆a/a +∆b/b)

+-∆x/x = +-( ∆a/a - ∆b/b)

∆x/x = ∆a+ ∆b

∆x = ∆a × ∆b

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Propagation of Errors in Quotient:

Suppose a result x is obtained by the quotient of two quantities say a and b. ... Thus, when a result involves the quotient of two observed quantities, the relative error in the result is equal to the sum of the relative error in the observed quantities.
