''Accuracy is the degree of closeness to true value. Precision is the degree to which an instrument or process will repeat the same value. In other words, accuracy is the degree of veracity while precision is the degree of reproducibility.

Both accuracy and precision reflect how close a measurement is to an actual value, but they are not the same. Accuracy reflects how close a measurement is to a known or accepted value, while precision reflects how reproducible measurements are, even if they are far from the accepted value. Measurements that are both precise and accurate are repeatable and very close to true values.
Accuracy is a measure of how close to an absolute standard a measurement is made, while precision is a measure of the resolution of the measurement. Accuracy is calibration, and inaccuracy is systematic error. Precision, again, is resolution, and is a source of random error.
The article at the link below should help you get a handle on the subtle differences between accuracy and precision.
accuracy is when you KNOW something and uncertancy is when your not sure
accuracy is the how well it is done. Quality is what something is worth.
So accuracy is how close the mean is to the true value. Precision is how close all your values are to each other. If you have repeatable results you will see this straight away. Spiking samples with known amounts is a great way to find out if you have as much as you think you have i.e. checking the accuracy
Precision is how close your measurements are. Accuracy is how close your measurements are to the actual measurement.
The term accuracy describes how far your observation/measurement is from the correct result. Precision describes how repeatable your results are, regardless of their accuracy..
Imagine a dartboard. An accurate measurement would be analogous to hitting the bulls-eye. While a precise measurement is just the tight clustering of shots.
An accurate answer to a question answers the question. The precision depends on the level of accuracy of the answer.
Accuracy is a measure of how close to an absolute standard a measurement is made, while precision is a measure of the resolution of the measurement. Accuracy is calibration, and inaccuracy is systematic error. Precision, again, is resolution, and is a source of random error.

Accuracy and precision mean the exactly the same thing in this context.
Accuracy is how close the value that is measured to a true or standard value. While precision is referred as the degree of nearness of the measured values to one another in a repeated same value.
precision
Accuracy and precision are synonyms. They both mean without error, they are exactly right, No more and no less.
Precision is a writer's attention to accuracy in world choice.
