the equipment error is the percentage of uncertainty on the equipment, so for example, a measuring cylinder has the percentage error of around 0.5cm3. The only way I know off to reduce error percentage is to well increase sample size/ volume A etc. as the calculation is something like (equipment error / quantity measured x 100) this would mean that having a higher quantity to measure will therefore decrease percentage error. hope it helps.
