b) greater than tommy's.
c) more precise than tommy's
d) more accurate than tommy's.

Explanation:

Precision refers to the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.

For Example: If you weigh a given substance five times and you get 3.2 kg each time. Then the measurement is very precise.  

Accuracy refers to the closeness of a measured value to a standard or known value.

For Example: If the mass of a substance is 32 kg and one person weighed 31 kg and another person weighed 29 kg. Then, the weight measured by first person is more accurate.

Mass weighed by Mary = 10.00 g
