The relative density of a material of a body is found by weighing it first in air and then in water. If the weight of he body in air is W_(1) = 8.00 +- N and the weight in water is W_(2) = 6.00 +- 0.05 N , then the relative density rho_(r ) = W_(1)//( W_(1) - W_(2)) with the maximum permissible eror is
