Question

A group of students is told to use a meter stick to find the width of a physics lab room. They reported 6 independent measurements: 4.402 m,4.217 m, 4.345 m,

4.925 m, 4.372 m, 4.289 m. How should they report their best estimate? (note: don't forget to look for outliers and any extra decimal places) * W = (4.425 + 0.104) m * W = (4.325 + 0.073) m * W = (4.43 ± 0.25) m * W = (4.33 ± 0.03) m
