In measuring the sides of a rectangle, one side is taken 8% in excess, and the other 7% in deficit. Find the error percent in the area calculated from these measurements.  Choose the correct answer:
A) 0.11%
B) 0.7%
C) 0.44%
D) 0.6%
E) 0.8%
Let x and y be the sides of the rectangle. Then, Correct area = xy.   Calculated area = (27/25) x (40/43) y = (913/909 )(xy)   Error In measurement = (913/909)xy- xy = (4/909)xy   Error percentage = [(4/909)xy (1/xy)100] % = (11/25)=
