I assume that with "estimated" you mean that you round a number. Rounding can be done in several ways; but it is usually done in such a way that the rounded answer can be greater or smaller than the original number - depending on the specific number.

The actual yield is less than the theoretical yield.


What does it mean if you get a negative number when you calculate for percent error?

Depending on whether you subtract actual value from expected value or other way around, a positive or negative percent error, will tell you on which side of the expected value that your actual value is. For example, suppose your expected value is 24, and your actual value is 24.3 then if you do the following calculation to figure percent error:[percent error] = (actual value - expected value)/(actual value) - 1 --> then convert to percent.So you have (24.3 - 24)/24 -1 = .0125 --> 1.25%, which tells me the actual is higher than the expected. If instead, you subtracted the actual from the expected, then you would get a negative 1.25%, but your actual is still greater than the expected. My preference is to subtract the expected from the actual. That way a positive error tells you the actual is greater than expected, and a negative percent error tells you that the actual is less than the expected.


How can I tell if my estimated answer is greater or less than the exact answer to a multiplication problem?

Assuming that the estimate is based on sensible approximations, there is no simple way. You will need to compare the estimate and the true value. If you've rounded up, the estimate will be greater. If you've rounded down, the estimate will be less.

Why significant figures represent the precision of a measurement and not its accuracy.?

A measurement that has a larger number of significant figures has a greater reproducibility, or precision because it has a smaller source of error in the estimated digit. A value with a greater number of significant figures is not necessarily more accurate than a measured value with less significant figures, only more precise. For example, a measured value of 1.5422 m was obtained using a more precise measuring tool, while a value of 1.2 m was obtained using a less precise measuring tool. If the actual value of the measured object was 1.19 m, the measurement obtained from the less precise measuring tool would be more accurate.
