Arribas, E.; Escobar, I.; Ramirez-Vazquez, R. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
In the article 'How Long Is My Toilet Roll--A Simple Exercise in Mathematical Modelling' several models of increasing complexity are introduced and solved to calculate indirectly the length of paper on a toilet-roll. All these results are presented without errors. The authors of this comment believe the error analysis of measurements made in a…
