Verified by Experts

Given: `X=(2k^(3)l^(2))/(msqrt(n))`
`therefore (DeltaX)/(X)=3(Deltak)/(k)+2(Deltal)/(l)+(Deltam)/(m)+(1)/(2)(Deltan)/(n)`
Percentage error in X
`(DeltaX)/(x)xx100=(3(Deltak)/(k)+2(Deltal)/(l)+(Deltam)/(m)+(1)/(2)(Deltan)/(n))xx100`
`=3xx1%+2xx2%+3%+(1)/(2)xx4%`
`=3%+4%+3%+2%=12%`
