General Chemistry - Calculating Percent Error

Sometimes we take measurements, and sometimes we're off by a little bit. How far off? Does it make sense to just use a number? Shouldn't we use something that tells us how far off we are relative to the true value? Yes we should, hence, percent error. Take a look and I'll show you what I mean.
