In an investigation on accuracy and precision, Myriah measures the mass of a 10.00 g piece of metal several times. Her measurements are 9.98 g, 10.02 g, 10.01 g, and 9.99 g. Which statement best describes her results?

Accuracy is the degree of which a certain measurement conforms to the correct value or the standard value. It is not the same with the term precision. Precision, on the other hand, is a measure used to characterize the closeness of the data measured. For the results shown, we can say that her data are precise since they are values close to each other.
