Answer:

Personally I think thatthr answer could be 5.38853503%, you can round it however you need.

Explanation:

There's a value of error between the noted square meters and the actual room's area. which is 4.23. Using the formula to get the percentage of error is getting the value (78.5 - 74.27 = 4.23) and dividing it by 78.5. Then just multiply it by 100 to get the percentage.
