Total closing error in latitude $= \text{∑northing-∑southing} \\ = 249.15 -248.64 =+0.51 \text{(correction is positive)}$
Total closing error in departure $= \text{∑easting-∑westing} \\ = 319.485 -319.265 =+0.22 \text{(correction is positive)}$
Apply Bowditch rule for observation of correction
Correction for latitude = $\frac{\text{error in latitude} \times \text{length of thet side}}{\text{perimeter of …
