Answer:

69.993

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the percentage error formula:

Percentage error = (true - measured value / true measurement ) * 100%

1% error in measurement

1% of 69.3

0.01 * 69.3 = 0.693

True measurement = error in measurement + measured value

True measurement = 0.693 + 69.3

Actual measurement = 69.993

Hence, actual measurement = 69.993.
