The greatest possible error for a measurement is typically half of the smallest unit of measurement. In this case, the smallest unit of measurement is 1 foot, so the greatest possible error for a 14-foot measurement would be 0.5 feet. This means that the actual measurement could be as low as 13.5 feet or as high as 14.5 feet.
