Solution:

To be labeled as a jumbo egg, the egg is supposed to weight 2.5 oz

When Desmond buys a carton of jumbo eggs, the weight of one is 2.4 oz

To find: percent error

Percent error is the difference between a measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%

Here approximate value = 2.5 oz and exact value = 2.4 oz

Therefore percent error is 4.17 %
