Accuracy & Precision Worksheet
Twenty practice questions: classify each target diagram as high or low accuracy, and high or low precision.
About This Worksheet
This worksheet covers Accuracy vs Precision. Look carefully at the targets below. Each shows the results of several repeated shots at a bullseye.
For every target, state whether it shows high or low accuracy, and high or low precision.
- Accuracy — how close the shots (or their centre) are to the bullseye.
- Precision — how tightly the shots cluster together, whether or not they are near the centre.
There are questions in total.
