a) -4.11%
b) 2.74%
c) 0%
d) -1.36%

Explanation:

"Percent error" is the difference between the "actual" value and the measured value.
%"error" = ("measured" - "actual")/"actual" xx 100

7.0: %"error" = (7.0 - 7.3)/7.3 xx 100 = -4.11%

7.5: %"error" = (7.5 - 7.3)/7.3 xx 100 = 2.74%

7.3: %"error" = (7.3 - 7.3)/7.3 xx 100 = 0%

7.2: %"error" = (7.2 - 7.3)/7.3 xx 100 = -1.36%
