Alijah · Answer 1

Set 2: 24, 23, 25, 24

Set 3: 41, 42, 41, 43

Explanation:

Precision is based on how close two or more measured values are to each other. When you say something is accurate, it is how close the values are to the standard value.

Now let's take your scenario into consideration.

Although set 2 is not close to the correct value of 42, the measures are close to each other, so we can say that this set is precise, but not accurate.

On the other hand, set 3 is close to the correct value, and they are also close to each other. So you can say that this set is both accurate and precise.
