Answer by jojo14344(900) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Out of 289 reviewed, you're % of error is,
(12/289)100=4.15%
Or,
((289-12)/289)*100=95.85% are right.
Of the remaining 925 you didn't review (1214-289) you assumed they're right.
The more glucose you review, the lesser your percentage of error if it remains at 12 errors.
Thank you,
