2 margin: 'The margin of error' describes the chance or possibility (often expressed in a percentage) that data or information is inaccurate. The term is often used in the context of surveys and polls. For example, a survey which shows that 78% of Americans like penguins, with a 3% margin of error, indicates that the true number of Americans who like penguins is between 75% and 81% (a 3% shift in both directions). Note that 'margin' has several meanings in different contexts.
