I'm pretty confident that "Precision" is the right answer since it specifically refers to the consistency of measurements.

I keep mixing up "Bias" and "Precision." I know bias is about systematic error, but does it relate to repeatability?

I remember practicing a question about this, and I think "Standard deviation" was mentioned as a measure of variability, not repeatability.

I think the term we're looking for is "Precision," but I'm not entirely sure. It feels like it could also relate to "Accuracy."

I've got a good strategy - I'll eliminate the answers I'm sure aren't right, then focus in on the definitions of accuracy and precision to pick the best one.

Wait, isn't precision the same as repeatability? I'm getting a bit confused between all these similar-sounding measurement terms.

Okay, I've got this. Precision is the measure of how consistently an instrument can produce the same result. That's the definition I'm looking for here.

D) Precision, no doubt. It's the one that measures how consistent your instrument is, like a really precise digital scale. Easy peasy!

Actually, it's D) Precision. Accuracy is about how close the results are to the true value, while precision is about repeatability.
