    Answer: 5%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A meteorologist predicted that Monday's hight temperature would be 76F and on Monday, the temperature reached 80F.

    The percentage error will be

    Percentage error=

    (Exact value-Forecasted value) / exact value x 100

    = 76-80/80 * 100

    = - 4/80 * 100

    =4/80 * 100

    = 400/80

    = 5%

    The percentage error is 5%.
