To find the percentage of error, David's measurement needs to be compared to the actual height.
The difference between the measurement and the actual height is 6 - 5.61 = 0.39 feet.
The percentage of error can be calculated by dividing the difference by the actual height, and then multiplying by 100%:
(0.39 / 6) * 100% = 6.5%
Therefore, the percentage of error in David's measurement is 6.5%.
