← HistoryWhich outcome occurred at high altitudes from miscalculation on the Inca quipu?
A)Erroneous record of terrace agriculture✓
B)Deceptive military troop deployments
C)Imprecise tracking in mining routes
D)Incorrect calculation for bronze smelting
💡 Explanation
Incorrect data would be collected because the Quipu was designed as base-10 recording device, so an error propagating though, would compromise agricultural management. Erroneous record of crop yield and land fertility management impacted high altitude communities; therefore reducing survivability; rather than accurate military plans.
