Accuracy is the state of being precise or exact about something. E.X. The battery percentage on devices show the accurate battery percent there is on that device.Precision is another word for accuracy. It also means the state/condition of being exact or accurate.They are both important because sometimes for you to know something, you are going to have to find the exact number of it. E.X. When you travel by plane, you'd have to know the exact number of gasoline so the plane won't stop in mid air.
