What is meant by measurement is accurate but not precise?
An accurate but not precise measurement would be an approximate measurement. For example, in cooking or baking, the ingredients list might indicate one cup of a certain item. Scientifically, however, one cup, (or 8 ounces) would not be a precise measurement for testing purposes. Instead, a precisemeasurement would be required, especially when the results of a specific test need to be reproducible and the quantities are minute, as in micrograms, for example. Accuracy in measurement is of closeness to the actual or exact, but precision in measurement is closeness to the same spot each time it is taken.
