# The mass of an object is measured by two students (true weight is 12 kg)Student 1: He measures 12 kgStudent 2: She measures 12.5 kgMeasurement of which student is more accurate.

Student 1

##### SOLUTION
Accuracy defines nearness of a measured value to the standard or true value. Since value measured by student 1 is nearer to the actual value $12 \ kg$ compared to that measured by student 2. So measurement of student 1 is more accurate.
