Answer:

percentage error = 10.53%


Step-by-step explanation:

percentage error = ((an exegereated value --acutaual value)/actual value)*100

exegereted amount = 16.8 pounds

actual amount = 15.2 pounds

percentage error = ((16.8-15.2)/15.2)*100

                              = 10.53%

percentage error = 10.53%
