Answer:

6.7 %

which agrees with answer A in your list.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the standard volume is 1.5 cubic cm, and the measured volume is 1.6 cubic cm, then the difference between these two is :

1.6 - 1.5 = 0.1 cubic cm. and therefore the percentage error is given by:

0.1/1.5 = 0.066666...which corresponds to a rounding of 6.7%

Recall as well that percent error is always expressed as a positive number.
