The air temperature was measured using a thermometer with an accuracy of 1 ° C. What could the actual temperature be if the thermometer showed 25 ° C?

If it is said that the accuracy of measuring the air temperature with a thermometer is 1 ° C, then this means that the current reading of the thermometer may have a deviation up or down by no more than 1 ° C. Usually, deviations in the readings of measuring instruments correspond to one division on its scale. which determines the accuracy of the measurement.

If the thermometer shows 25 ° C, then the possible values can be considered in the range from 24 ° C to 26 ° C inclusive.
