    Answer: Option C. + / -3

    Solution:

    The error range is most reliable if the width of the range is smaller:

    Width=w=2 Absolute value (error range)

    A.) w=2 Absolute value (+/-12) = 2 (12) →w=24

    B.) w=2 Absolute value (+/-6) = 2 (6) →w=12

    C.) w=2 Absolute value (+/-3) = 2 (3) →w=3

    D.) w=2 Absolute value (+/-9) = 2 (9) →w=18

    The smallest width is in option C.
