# Choose the correct statement.

A dimensionally correct equation may be incorrect.

##### SOLUTION
A dimensionally incorrect equation is always incorrect. But if an equation is  dimensionally correct, we cannot state it to be correct as it might have error in a constant needed to complete the formula.
$eg: A = r^{2} \rightarrow$ dimensionally  correct
But eqn for circle is $A= \pi r ^{2}$
Hence, option C is correct.

You're just one step away
