What is the best estimate of the relative error

Reference no: EM13327747

A group of students have measured the time it takes for a cart to travel some distance along a level track. Their best estimate of the relative error in the time measurement is 1.0 % and that of the distance measurement is 2.0 %. What is the best estimate of the relative error in their determination of the cart´s speed?
