In a kingdom there was an excellent archer. The ruler was jealous of his archery skills, so he decided to put his skills to test. The archer was asked to shoot an apple which was placed on his son's head or else his son will be killed. The archer always used his trusted bow.
Now that his son's life was in his hands the archer's hand started to tremble. So, now when he started shooting with the original bow he hit different spots which were close to the apple. In this case the archer is:
Accurate
In this case the archer hits the shots very close to the apple but hits different spots. Here he is not precise but is accurate on his shots.
Accuracy by definition is the agreement of a particular value to the true value of the result in any measurement. . If the average value of different measurements is close to the true value, the measurement is said to be accurate. In simpler terms we can say that a measurement is said to be accurate if it is as close to real value as possible.
