Please don't provide handwritten solution .... 

Four research teams measured the mass of a fossilized sauropod skull, and what each team wrote in its team notebook is shown in the table below. Suppose a later and more reliable measurement gives 7.70 kg for the mass of the same fossil. Decide which of the earlier measurements was the most accurate, and which was the most precise. team A B C D what was written in the notebook "7.3kg +0.2kg" "8.1kg" "between 7.72kg and 7.76kg" "7.50kg ±0.50%" most accurate measurement most precise measurement X S
