6.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to calculate the percentage error in in the average polling results calculated.

Firstly, what this means is that we calculate the average of the total votes.

That would be ; (66 + 56 + 55 + 60 + 63)/5 =

300/5 = 60%

we now proceed to calculate the percentage error in the company’s result.

Mathematically;

percentage error = (Actual value - expected value)/expected value * 100%

Here the actual value is 64% and the expected is 60%

% error = (64-60)/60 * 100 = 4/60 * 100 = 6.67%

This is 6.7% to the nearest tenth of a percent
